Mary Anoints Jesus Feet
““It’s six days before the Passover, where Lazarus was whom Jesus had raised from the dead. Martha, Lazarus’ sister, waited on them and he was among those at the table. Mary, her sister, also known as Mary Magdalene, brought in a pound of very costly ointment, pure nard. With it she anointed the feet of Jesus, wiping them with her hair. The house was filled with the scent of the ointment when Judas Iscariot, one of the disciples — the man who would betray Jesus — arrived. “Why was the ointment not sold for three hundred denarii and the money given to the poor?” It’s noted in the scripture he said this not because he cared about the poor, but because he was in charge of the common fund and helped himself to the contents.” Jesus replied, “Leave her alone, let her keep it for the day of my burial. You have the poor with you always, you will not have me.” Then Jesus was on his way to Jerusalem.
As he approached the city the townspeople went out to greet him with branches of palm shouting Hosanna! Blessed is he coming in the name of the Lord. The King of Israel.
Blessing, Barbara
