Strong's References
- G1220 — δηνάριον (dēnárion, day-nar'-ee-on): a denarius — of Latin origin; a denarius (or ten asses):--pence, penny(-worth).

- G2532 — καί (kaí, kahee): and, even, also, namely — apparently, a primary particle, having a copulative and sometimes also a cumulative force; and, also, even, so then, too, etc.; often used in connection (or composition) with other particles or small words:--and, also, both, but, even, for, if, or, so, that, then, therefore, when, yet.
- G3464 — μύρον (mýron, moo'-ron): anointing-oil, ointment — probably of foreign origin (compare מֹר, σμύρνα); "myrrh", i.e. (by implication) perfumed oil:--ointment.

- G5124 — τοῦτο (toûto, too'-to): neuter singular nominative or accusative case of οὗτος; that thing:--here (-unto), it, partly, self(-same), so, that (intent), the same, there(-fore, -unto), this, thus, where(-fore).
