John 13:4-5
removed <5087> [laid aside.]
That is, his gown, or upper coat, [himatia,] with the girdle by which it was girdled close to his tunic, or inner coat; and instead of his girdle, he tied a towel about him, that he might have it in readiness to dry their feet,and that he might appear as a servant. Indeed the whole action was a servile one; and never performed by a superior to an inferior.
poured <906> [poureth.]
to wash <3538> [to wash.]
feet <4228> [feet.]
John 21:7
disciple .................. that <1565 3101 3754> [that disciple.]
<2076> [It is.]
Simon <4613> [when.]
outer garment <1903> [fisher's coat.]
Or, upper coat, great coat, or, surtout, [ependutes <\\See definition 1903\\>,] from [epi <\\See definition 1909\\>,] upon, and [enduo <\\See definition 1746\\>,] I clothe.
nothing on underneath <1131> [naked.]
That is, he was only in his vest, or under garment; for [gumnos <\\See definition 1131\\>,] naked, like the Hebrew {arom,} is frequently applied to one who has merely laid aside his outer garment. See 1 Sa 19:24; 2 Sa 6:20, on which see the note. To which may be added what we read in the LXX, Job 22:6, "Thou has taken away the covering of the naked," [amphiazo,] the plaid, or blanket, in which they wrapped themselves, and besides they had no other. In this sense Virgil says, {Nudus ara, sere nudus,} "plough naked, and sow naked," i.e., strip off your upper garments.
