14:3 The woman anoints Yeshua for his burial

(Yhn 12:1-8, Mat. 26:6-13)

3[ref]Meanwhile, Yeshua was in Bethany at the home who Simon who had previously had leprosy. Yeshua was sitting there when a woman came in with a hand-crafted container of very expensive fragrant oil. Breaking open the sealed flask, she poured the fragrant oil over Yeshua’s head. 4Immediately some started quietly grumbling about the extravagant waste, 5then they scolded the woman because a flask of genuine lotion like this could easily fetch almost a year’s wages if it was sold.

6But Yeshua spoke up, “What do you think you’re doing abusing her—leave her alone! She’s done something very good for me. 7[ref]You’ll always have poor people around, and you can help them whenever you want to, but I won’t be around forever. 8She has performed the traditional anointing of my body in advance of my burial. 9And I can assure you that wherever the good news is proclaimed around the world, what she has done today will be part of the story and she’ll be remembered.


3And him being in Baʸthania, in the house of_Simōn the leprous, reclining of_him, a_woman came having an_alabaster_flask of_ointment, of_ genuine expensive _nard, having_broken the alabaster_flask, she_poured_down it on_the head of_him.
4But some were resenting to themselves:

6But the Yaʸsous/(Yəhōshūˊa) said:
Leave her, why are_you_all_bringing_about troubles to_her?
She_did a_good work in me.
7For/Because you_all_are_ always _having the poor with yourselves, and whenever you_all_may_be_wanting, you_all_are_being_able to_do well to_them, but you_all_are_ not always _having me.

Jesus’ Arrest, Trial, Crucifixion, and Burial

Matthew 26-27; Mark 14-15; Luke 22-23; John 13-19

On the Thursday before he was crucified, Jesus had arranged to share the Passover meal with his disciples in an upper room, traditionally thought to be located in the Essene Quarter of Jerusalem. After they finished the meal, they went to the Garden of Gethsemane, where Jesus often met with his disciples. There Judas Iscariot, one of Jesus’ own disciples, betrayed him to soldiers sent from the High Priest, and they took Jesus to the High Priest’s residence. In the morning the leading priests and teachers of the law put Jesus on trial and found him guilty of blasphemy. The council sent Jesus to stand trial for treason before the Roman governor Pontius Pilate, who resided at the Praetorium while in Jerusalem. The Praetorium was likely located at the former residence of Herod the Great, who had died over 30 years earlier. When Pilate learned that Jesus was from Galilee, he sent him to Herod Antipas, who had jurisdiction over Galilee. But when Jesus gave no answer to Herod’s many questions, Herod and his soldiers sent him back to Pilate, who conceded to the people’s demands that Jesus be crucified. Jesus was forced to carry his cross out of the city gate to Golgotha, meaning Skull Hill, referring to what may have been a small unquarried hill in the middle of an old quarry just outside the gate. After Jesus was unable to carry his cross any further, a man named Simon from Cyrene was forced to carry it for him. There at Golgotha they crucified Jesus. After Jesus died, his body was hurriedly taken down before nightfall and placed in a newly cut, rock tomb owned by Joseph of Arimathea, a member of the Jewish high council. This tomb was likely located at the perimeter of the old quarry.

Bethany and Bethphage

Matthew 21:1-17; Mark 11:1-11; Luke 19:28-48; John 12:1-19; see also Matthew 26:6-13; Mark 14:3-9

At the start of Passover one week before he was crucified, Jesus and his disciples traveled to Jerusalem, approaching the city from the east. When they arrived at the village of Bethphage, Jesus mounted a donkey and rode down the Mount of Olives as a humble king entering his capital city. Along the way, many people laid branches and cloaks in his path to welcome him. After Jesus entered the city, he immediately went up to the Temple and drove out the moneychangers and merchants there, and he healed the blind and the lame. Then he traveled nearly two miles outside the city to the village of Bethany to spend the night, which appears to have been where he typically lodged each night while visiting Jerusalem during the crowded Passover festival. Bethany is also where Jesus’ close friends Mary, Martha, and Lazarus lived. One evening while Jesus was there at a large dinner party given in his honor, Martha served the food, and Mary poured expensive perfume on Jesus’ feet and wiped his feet with her hair.
