Mark 14:6-9 - The Popular Commentary by Paul E. Kretzmann

Bible Comments

Jesus defends the woman:

Mark 14:6-9

6 And Jesus said,Let her alone; why trouble ye her? she hath wrought a good work on me.

7 For ye have the poor with you always, and whensoever ye will ye may do them good: but me ye have not always.

8 She hath done what she could: she is come aforehand to anoint my body to the burying.

9 Verily I say unto you, Wheresoever this gospel shall be preached throughout the whole world, this also that she hath done shall be spoken of for a memorial of her.
