web - Matthew:26:6-13

web@Matthew:26:6 @ Now when Jesus was in Bethany, in the house of Simon the leper,

web@Matthew:26:7 @ a woman came to him having an alabaster jar of very expensive ointment, and she poured it on his head as he sat at the table.

web@Matthew:26:8 @ But when his disciples saw this, they were indignant, saying, "Why this waste?

web@Matthew:26:9 @ For this ointment might have been sold for much, and given to the poor."

web@Matthew:26:10 @ However, knowing this, Jesus said to them, "Why do you trouble the woman? Because she has done a good work for me.

web@Matthew:26:11 @ For you always have the poor with you; but you don't always have me.

web@Matthew:26:12 @ For in pouring this ointment on my body, she did it to prepare me for burial.

web@Matthew:26:13 @ Most certainly I tell you, wherever this Good News is preached in the whole world, what this woman has done will also be spoken of as a memorial of her."
