Today is Maundy Thursday. "Maundy" is from the Latin word, "mandatum," and connects to the teaching Jesus gives at the Last Supper when he says, "A new commandment I give to you, that you love one another, even as I have loved you, that you also love one another." (John 13:34 NASB) Apparently the teaching didn't sink in. The disciples begin arguing who is the greatest among them, like some kind of sports talk show (Luke 22:24). The greatest doesn't have to ask. He is the one in their midst always.
