John Chapter 1155 Now the Passover of the Jews was at hand, and many went up from the country to Jerusalem before the Passover to purify themselves.56 They were looking for Jesus and saying to one another as they stood in the temple, āWhat do you think? That he will not come to the feast at all?ā57 Now the chief priests and the Pharisees had given orders that if anyone knew where he was, he should let them know, so that they might arrest him. John Chapter 121 Six days before the Passover, Jesus therefore came to Bethany, where Lazarus was, whom Jesus had raised from the dead.2 So they gave a dinner for him there. Martha served, and Lazarus was one of those reclining with him at table.3 Mary therefore took a pound of expensive ointment made from pure nard, and anointed the feet of Jesus and wiped his feet with her hair. The house was filled with the fragrance of the perfume.4 But Judas Iscariot, one of his disciples (he who was about to betray him), said,5 āWhy was this ointment not sold for three hundred denarii and given to the poor?ā6 He said this, not because he cared about the poor, but because he was a thief, and having charge of the moneybag he used to help himself to what was put into it.7 Jesus said, āLeave her alone, so that she may keep it for the day of my burial.8 For the poor you always have with you, but you do not always have me.ā9 When the large crowd of the Jews learned that Jesus was there, they came, not only on account of him but also to see Lazarus, whom he had raised from the dead.10 So the chief priests made plans to put Lazarus to death as well,11 because on account of him many of the Jews were going away and believing in Jesus. John Chapter 123 Mary therefore took a pound of expensive ointment made from pure nard, and anointed the feet of Jesus and wiped his feet with her hair. The house was filled with the fragrance of the perfume. Luke Chapter 736 One of the Pharisees asked him to eat with him, and he went into the Phariseeās house and took his place at the table.37 And behold, a woman of the city, who was a sinner, when she learned that he was reclining at table in the Phariseeās house, brought an alabaster flask of ointment,38 and standing behind him at his feet, weeping, she began to wet his feet with her tears and wiped them with the hair of her head and kissed his feet and anointed them with the ointment.39 Now when the Pharisee who had invited him saw this, he said to himself, āIf this man were a prophet, he would have known who and what sort of woman this is who is touching him, for she is a sinner.ā40 And Jesus answering said to him, āSimon, I have something to say to you.ā And he answered, āSay it, Teacher.ā41 āA certain moneylender had two debtors. One owed five hundred denarii, and the other fifty.42 When they could not pay, he cancelled the debt of both. Now which of them will love him more?ā43 Simon answered, āThe one, I suppose, for whom he cancelled the larger debt.ā And he said to him, āYou have judged rightly.ā44 Then turning toward the woman he said to Simon, āDo you see this woman? I entered your house; you gave me no water for my feet, but she has wet my feet with her tears and wiped them with her hair.45 You gave me no kiss, but from the time I came in she has not ceased to kiss my feet.46 You did not anoint my head with oil, but she has anointed my feet with ointment.47 Therefore I tell you, her sins, which are many, are forgivenāfor she loved much. But he who is forgiven little, loves little.ā48 And he said to her, āYour sins are forgiven.ā49 Then those who were at table with him began to say among themselves, āWho is this, who even forgives sins?ā50 And he said to the woman, āYour faith has saved you; go in peace.ā Mark Chapter 143 And while he was at Bethany in the house of Simon the leper, as he was reclining at table, a woman came with an alabaster flask of ointment of pure nard, very costly, and she broke the flask and poured it over his head.4 There were some who said to themselves indignantly, āWhy was the ointment wasted like that?5 For this ointment could have been sold for more than three hundred denarii and given to the poor.ā And they scolded her.6 But Jesus said, āLeave her alone. Why do you trouble her? She has done a beautiful thing to me. Matthew Chapter 266 Now when Jesus was at Bethany in the house of Simon the leper, |
