At Bethany, Mary anoints Jesus’ feet

베다니에서 잔치할 때 마리아가 향유를 예수의 발에 부음

John 12:1–8: six days before the Passover, Jesus comes to Bethany, where Lazarus is, who had been dead, whom he raised from the dead. They make Jesus a supper there. Martha serves, but Lazarus is one of those who sit at the table with him. Mary takes a pound of ointment of pure nard, very precious, anoints Jesus’ feet and wipes his feet with her hair, and the house is filled with the fragrance of the ointment. Judas Iscariot, Simon’s son, one of Jesus’ disciples, who would betray him, says, “Why wasn’t this ointment sold for three hundred denarii and given to the poor?” 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. But Jesus says, “Leave her alone. She has kept this for the day of my burial. For you always have the poor with you, but you don’t always have me.” The Korean Revised Version does not call Judas Simon’s son at 12:4.
