2 But they said, “Not during the feast, lest there be an uproar of the people.”
The Anointing at Bethany
3 aAnd being in Bethany at the house of Simon the leper, as He sat at the table, a woman came having an alabaster flask of very costly1 oil of spikenard. Then she broke the flask and poured it on His head.
4 But there were some who were indignant among themselves, and said, “Why was this fragrant oil wasted?
5 For it might have been sold for more than three hundred adenarii and given to the poor.” And they bcriticized her sharply.
6 But Jesus said, “Let her alone. Why do you trouble her? She has done a good work for Me.
