By displaying a willingness to perform such a lowly task, Jesus gave his apostles an object lesson that would be deeply engraved on their minds and would encourage them to be humble in the days ahead.
Oma valmisolekuga teha sellist lihtsat tööd andis Jeesus apostlitele näitliku õppetunni, mis jäi neile kahtlemata eredalt meelde ning innustas neid olema alandlikud ajal, mis neid ees ootas.
