CLV(i)
3 And at His being in Bethany, in the house of Simon the leper, at His lying down, a woman came, having an alabaster vase of veritable nard attar, costly. And crushing the alabaster vase, she pours it down on His head."
4 Now some were resenting this to themselves and saying, "For what has this destruction of the attar occurred?
5 For this attar could have been disposed of for over three hundred denarii, and given to the poor.And they muttered against her."
6 Yet Jesus said, "Leave her! Why are you affording her weariness? For it is an ideal work she works in Me."
7 For you always have the poor with you, and whenever you may be wanting, you can always do well to them, yet Me you have not always."
8 What she had she makes use of. She gets beforehand to anoint My body with attar for burial.
