Meaning of FOOT

Due to the dust on the road, and how bare their feet were, without socks or stockings, it was necessary to wash their feet very frequently.



Due to the dust on the road, and how bare their feet were, without socks or stockings, it was necessary to wash their feet very frequently.

Upon arrival at a house, the owner of the house, or a servant, washed the visitor's feet; At a minimum, water had to be presented to be able to wash (Gen. 18:4; Luke 7:44).

Thus, washing the feet became an expression denoting the act of showing hospitality (1 Tim. 5:10). The provision of this service voluntarily denoted great devotion; Jesus gave a great lesson in humility by washing the feet of his disciples (John 13: 4-15).

To indicate a very humble job, the expression “loose the straps of the sandals” was used (Mk. 1:7; Lk. 3:16; Jn. 1:27).

To express condemnation and separation, the dust of the city was shaken off one's feet in a public manner (Matt. 10:14; Acts 13:51).

To express God's care for his people during the wilderness wandering, Moses tells them: "Your clothing has never grown old on you, nor has your foot swelled these forty years" (Deut. 8:4; cf. 29:5).

As an expression of dominance, the foot was placed on the neck of the defeated (Josh. 10:24, etc.).
There are numerous expressions used in the Bible with the term "foot":

"Covering one's feet" is used euphemistically for "relieving oneself" (1 Sam. 24:3).
"Speaking with the feet" denotes the great gesticulation with which the Easterners speak, and with which they give their words additional emphasis and nuance (Prov. 5:13).

"sitting at the feet," to denote a disciple receiving teaching, (Deut. 33:3; lit. Hebrew: Luke 10:39; Acts 22:3).

There are frequent references to the feet in terms of God leading His own (cf. Ps. 91:12, which also has messianic application; Ps. 121:3).

Reference is made to the moral walk in relationship with God and others (Ps. 73:2; Jb. 23:11; 31:5).
Applied to those who bring pleasant news, "the feet" are a synonym for "the arrival" (cf. Is. 52:7).



Here is the truth: Jesus Christ is Lord of life and Lord of all. - Jack Graham

DAILY DEVOTIONAL

Jesus is the Lord of Life

Jack Graham
Jesus is the Lord of Life, and that's the topic, that's the theme of the Gospel of John, and certainly John chapter 10 which is one of the well-known passages in all of the Bible. Jesus had enemies. You know that, right? While He was loved and beloved by multitudes, many rejected Him.
All of it was done for you and me.  Considering that, it is incumbent upon us to have the Blessing which the Cross affords

DAILY DEVOTIONAL

The Blessing which the Cross Affords

Jimmy Swaggart
This is the first mention of the Cross, although in shadow, after the Fall. The Lord told Satan through the serpent that victory would come by the Seed of the woman. Ironically, woman has no seed, with the exception of One, Who was the Lord Jesus Christ.
That “Light” resides in Christ, for He said, “I am the Light of the world”

DAILY DEVOTIONAL

Light which Redeems the Soul

Jimmy Swaggart
The darkness that was here prevalent was taken away only by the Spirit of God, as He moved upon the face of the waters. As someone has well said, The Moving of the Holy Spirit is the first sign of life.
Put your Faith in Him and what He has done for you at the Cross.

Beginnings are one thing, while endings are another!

Jimmy Swaggart
On this first day of a brand-new year, which is a new beginning of sorts, the Lord offers to every person a brand-new beginning in their life, irrespective as to what the past has been. Millions this year will make New Year’s resolutions, resolutions which invariably will not be kept.
The place where god puts you will not be perfect—even eden was exposed to the possibility of evil. But there is no better place to be than where god has set you down.

A Place Called Home

Colin S. Smith and Tim Augustyn
The book of genesis is part of the revelation god gave to moses at mount Sinai, so when it says eden was “in the east,” we are talking about a location somewhere east of Sinai.
