In context
1 Now it was the Passover and the Unleavened [cakes], after two days. And the High-priests and Scribes were seeking, how, with guile, they might secure, and lay him;
2 for they were saying—Not in the feast, lest there be an uproar of the people.
3 And, he being in Bethany, in the house of Simon the leper, as he was reclining, there came a woman, holding an alabaster-jar of perfume, pure spikenard, very costly; and breaking the jar she was pouring down [the perfume], upon his head.
4 But there were some much displeased among themselves—To what end hath, this waste of the perfume happened?
5 For this perfume could have been sold for above three hundred denaries, and given unto the destitute! and they were indignant with her.
