3. Therefore Miriam took a pound of ointment of pure nard, very precious, and anointed Yeshua’ss feet and wiped his feet with her hair. The house was filled with the fragrance of the ointment.
4. Then Judah Iscariot, Simon’s son, one of his disciples, who would betray him, said,
5. “Why wasn’t this ointment sold for three hundred denarii, and given to the poor?”
6. Now he said this, not because he cared for the poor, but because he was a thief, and having the money box, used to steal what was put into it.
7. But Yeshua said, “Leave her alone. She has kept this for the day of my burial.
8. For you always have the poor with you, but you don’t always have me.”
9. A large crowd therefore of the Judeans learnt that he was there, and they came, not for Yeshua’s sake only, but that they might see Lazarus also, whom he had raised from the dead.
10. But the chief priests conspired to put Lazarus to death also,
11. because on account of him many of the Judeans went away and believed in Yeshua.
