nsb@Matthew:26:6 @ Jesus was in Bethany in the house of Simon the leper.

nsb@Matthew:26:7 @ A woman came to him having an alabaster vase containing very precious ointment. She poured it upon his head while he was eating.

nsb@Matthew:26:8 @ The disciples saw it and were indignant. »To what purpose is this waste?

nsb@Matthew:26:9 @ »This ointment could have been sold for much and the money given to the poor.«

nsb@Matthew:26:10 @ Jesus was aware of this and said: »Why do you trouble the woman? Her expression to me was good.

nsb@Matthew:26:11 @ »The poor are always with you, but I am not always with you.

nsb@Matthew:26:12 @ »She poured this ointment on my body to prepare me for burial.

nsb@Matthew:26:13 @ »I tell you, Everywhere this good news is preached in the entire world, this good deed done by this woman will be spoken of in memory of her.«
