dby - Matthew:26:6-13

dby@Matthew:26:6 @ But Jesus being in Bethany, in Simon the leper's house,

dby@Matthew:26:7 @ a woman, having an alabaster flask of very precious ointment, came to him and poured it out upon his head as he lay at table.

dby@Matthew:26:8 @ But the disciples seeing it became indignant, saying, To what end [was] this waste?

dby@Matthew:26:9 @ for this might have been sold for much and been given to the poor.

dby@Matthew:26:10 @ But Jesus knowing [it] said to them, Why do ye trouble the woman? for she has wrought a good work toward me.

dby@Matthew:26:11 @ For ye have the poor always with you, but me ye have not always.

dby@Matthew:26:12 @ For in pouring out this ointment on my body, she has done it for my burying.

dby@Matthew:26:13 @ Verily I say to you, Wheresoever these glad tidings may be preached in the whole world, that also which this [woman] has done shall be spoken of for a memorial of her.
