Context Reading
2For they said, “Not during the feast, because there might be a riot among the people.” 3While he was at Bethany, in the house of Simon the leper, as he sat at the table, a woman came having an alabaster jar of ointment of pure nard — very costly. She broke the jar and poured it over his head. 4But there were some who were indignant among themselves, saying, “Why has this ointment been wasted? 5For this might have been sold for more than three hundred denariiand given to the poor.” So they grumbled against her. 6But Jesus said,“Leave her alone. Why do you trouble her? She has done a good work for me.
