True Fame
Matthew 26:6-13
Now when Jesus was in Bethany, in the house of Simon the leper,…


No one likes to be forgotten. Our Lord was not induced to pronounce this eulogy —

1. By Mary's social position.

2. By the intrinsic value of that which was presented to Him.

3. By the opinion of those who were present with Him at the time.

4. The great thing, the one thing to which Jesus looked, was the motive from which the action was performed. What a sublime prophecy that eulogium is!

(W. M. Taylor D. D.)
