'Given to the Poor' in the Bible

For this was able to be sold for much, and given to the poor.

For this myrrh was able to be sold for more than three hundred denaria, and given to the poor. And they murmured against her.

Why was not this myrrh sold for three hundred denaria, and given to the poor?

He has scattered abroad, he has given to the poor; his righteousness abides forever.
