3. Jesus was in Bethany. He was at the table in the home of a man named Simon, who had a skin disease. A woman came with a special sealed jar of very expensive perfume. It was made out of pure nard. She broke the jar open and poured the perfume on Jesus' head.
4. Some of the people there became angry. They said to one another, "Why waste this perfume?
5. It could have been sold for more than a year's pay. The money could have been given to poor people." So they found fault with the woman.
