Exegesis

The negative particle mē {μὴ | mē} governs an implied verb (“wash”) with the object phrase tous podas mou {τοὺς πόδας μου | toûs pódas mou} “my feet,” while monon {μόνον | mó-non} “only” restricts the scope of the request.

In contextJohn 13:9

Simon Peter said to Him, “Lord , not my feet only, but also my hands and my head.”
