Thematic Bible: Two debtors


Thematic Bible



A certain creditor had two debtors, the one owed five hundred denarii, and the other fifty. But having nothing to pay, he forgave them both. Tell me, which of these, then, will love him most? And Simon answering said, I suppose, he to whom he forgave most. And he said unto him, Thou hast judged rightly. read more.
So turning to the woman, he said to Simon, Thou seest this woman? I came into thine house, even water for my feet thou gavest not; but she hath washed my feet with her tears, and wiped them with the hairs of her head. One kiss hast thou not given me, but she from the time she hath come in, hath not ceased tenderly to kiss my feet. My head with oil thou hast not anointed; but she hath anointed my feet with odoriferous balm. For which cause, I tell thee, her many sins are forgiven, for she hath loved much: but to whom a little is forgiven, he loveth little.
