John 12:2

---

← John 12:1	John 12:2 (KJV)	John 12:3 →
Then Jesus six days before the passover came to Bethany, where Lazarus was which had been dead, whom he raised from the dead.	There they made him a supper; and Martha served: but Lazarus was one of them that sat at the table with him.	Then took Mary a pound of ointment of spikenard, very costly, and anointed the feet of Jesus, and wiped his feet with her hair: and the house was filled with the odour of the ointment.
