A Sinful Woman Anoints Jesus' Feet
36 Now one of the Pharisees invited Him to take dinner with him. So He came to the Pharisee's house and took His place at the table. 37 There was a woman in the town who was a social outcast, and when she learned that He was taking dinner at the Pharisee's house, she brought an alabaster bottle of perfume 38 and took her stand behind Him at His feet, continually weeping. Then she began to wet His feet with her tears, but she continued to wipe them off with the hair of her head, and she kept right on kissing His feet with affection and anointing them with the perfume.
