John 12:1-5 ▼

1 Then six days before the Passover, Jesus came to Bethany, where Lazarus was, whom Jesus raised from the dead.

2 So they prepared a dinner for him there; and Martha served, but Lazarus was one of those reclining at the table with him.

3 Mary, therefore, took a pound of ointment of pure nard, very precious, and anointed the feet of Jesus, and wiped his feet with her hair. And the house was filled with the fragrance of the ointment.

4 Then Judas Iscariot, one of his disciples, who would betray him, said,

5 |Why was this ointment not sold for three hundred denarii, and given to the poor?|
