Jesus Christ » Parables of » Two debtors
A certain moneylender had two debtors; one owed five hundred denaries, and the other fifty. When they had nothing to pay, he freely remitted the debt of both. Which of them, now, will love him the most? Simon answering said, He, I suppose, to whom he remitted the most. And he said to him, Thou hast judged rightly. read more.
And turning to the woman, he said to Simon, Seest thou this woman? I entered thy house, no water didst thou give me for my feet; but she wet my feet with tears, and wiped them with her hair. No kiss didst thou give me; but she, from the time I came in, did not cease to kiss my feet. My head with oil thou didst not anoint; but she anointed my feet with costly ointment. Wherefore, I say to thee, her many sins have been forgiven; for she loved much; but he to whom little is forgiven loveth little.
