Matthew 26:13 - John Trapp Complete Commentary

Bible Comments

Verily I say unto you, Wheresoever this gospel shall be preached in the whole world, there shall also this, that this woman hath done, be told for a memorial of her.

Ver. 13. Be told for a memorial of her] Though now she be sharply censured by the traitor for a waster of goods. "Do well and hear ill is written upon heaven gates," said that martyr. But God will both right his wronged and honour his disparaged. Mary's name now smells as sweet in all God's house as ever her ointment did; when Judas' name rots, and shall do to all posterity. Yea, in the next world, Mary and such, we shall look upon, likely, with thoughts of extraordinary love and sweetness throughout all eternity: as Judas and such, with execrable and everlasting detestation.
