A Sinful Woman Anoints Jesus' Feet
36 Now one of the Pharisees repeatedly invited Him to a meal at his house; so He entered the house and reclined at the table. 37 And there was a woman in the town who was a notorious sinner. Having learnt that Jesus was at table in the Pharisee's house she brought a flask of perfume, 38 and, standing behind close to His feet, weeping, began to wet His feet with her tears; and with her hair she wiped the tears away again, while she lovingly kissed His feet and poured the perfume over them.
