Episode 133
Some of the guests at dinner at Simon’s house, have objected strongly to this woman who has interrupted the dinner to pour expensive perfume over Jesus’ head. They have been rebuking her harshly. But Jesus leaps to her defence.
“Leave her alone,” said Jesus. “Why are you bothering her? She has done a beautiful thing to me. The poor you will always have with you, and you can help them any time you want. But you will not always have me. She did what she could. She poured perfume on my body beforehand to prepare for my burial. (Mark 14:6–8)
