Mary Anoints Jesus

Mary Anoints Jesus

(Matthew 26:6–13, Mark 14:3–9, Luke 7:36–50)

12Six days before the Passover, Jesus came to Bethany, [the hometown of] Lazarus, whom [He] had raised from [the] dead. 2So they hosted a dinner for [Jesus] there. Martha served, and Lazarus was among those reclining at the table with Him. 3Then Mary took about a pint[fn] of expensive perfume, made of pure nard, [and] she anointed Jesus’ feet and wiped [them] with her hair. And the house was filled with the fragrance of the perfume.

4But one of His disciples, Judas Iscariot, who was going to betray Him, asked, 5“Why wasn’t this perfume sold for three hundred denarii[fn] and [the money] given to [the] poor?” 6[Judas] did not say this because he cared about the poor, but because he was a thief. As keeper of the money bag, he used to take from what was put into [it].

7“Leave her alone Jesus replied. “She has kept [this perfume] in preparation for the day of My burial. 8The poor you will always have with you,[fn] but {you will} not always have Me.”


12:3 Greek a litra; that is, approximately 12 ounces or 340 grams

12:5 A denarius was customarily a day’s wage for a laborer; see Matthew 20:2.

12:8 See Deuteronomy 15:11.
