The word Maundy is derived from the Latin mandatum from the phrase “Mandatum novum do vobis ut diligatis invicem sicut dilexi vos” (“A new commandment I give unto you, That ye love one another; as I have loved you”), the statement by Jesus in the Gospel of John 13:34) by which Jesus explained to the Apostles the significance of his action of washing their feet.
