The woman who anoints Yeshua’s feet

Luke 7:36–50

7:36 The woman who anoints Yeshua’s feet

36Another time, someone from the Pharisees party invited Yeshua to go to his place for a meal, and so he went there and reclined on a flat couch. 37[ref]Then wow, a sinful woman from the city who knew that he was reclining in there, came into the room and carrying a beautiful carved stone flask of scented skin-cream. 38She stood weeping behind Yeshua’s feet, wetting his feet with her tears. Then she used her hair to wipe off the tears and kissed his feet and rubbed the lotion into them. 39When the Pharisee who had invited Yeshua saw this, he said to himself, “If that man was a prophet, he’d know who she is and what kind of woman it is that’s touching him, because she breaks God’s laws.”

40Simon,” Yeshua asked him, “I need to tell you something.”

“Tell me, teacher,” he replied.

41Then Yeshua told him this story:Once there were two people who had borrowed from a money lender: one borrowed five-hundred coins and the other borrowed fifty. 42But neither of them was able to repay him, so he wrote-off both of their debts. Now after that, which one of them do you think would appreciate him more?

43“I suppose,” answered Simon, “that it was the one who was forgiven the biggest debt.”

You’re right,” said Yeshua. 44Then looking at the woman he said to Simon, “You see this woman? I came into your house but you didn’t give me any water to wash my feet, yet she wet my feet with her tears and then wiped them off with her hair. 45You didn’t kiss me when I entered, but this woman hasn’t stopped kissing my feet since I came in. 46You didn’t offer olive oil for my head, but she anointed my feet with this lotion, 47so that’s why I’ll tell you this: Her many sins have been forgiven because she showed a lot of love, but the one who has been forgiven little, is loving little.

48Then he said to the woman, “Your sins have been forgiven.

49The others who were reclining in the room started to ask to each other, “Who does he think he is to be able to even forgive sins.”

50Your faith has saved you,” Yeshua said to the woman, “Go in peace.
