Juan 11:2

2 María era la misma que ungió con perfume al Señor, y le secó los pies con sus cabellos.

Juan 11:2 Meaning and Commentary

John 11:2

It was [that] Mary which anointed the Lord with ointment,
&c.] Not the woman in ( Luke 7:37 ) , as some have thought, whose name is not mentioned, and which history is not related by John at all: but Mary in ( John 12:3 ) , who is both mentioned by name, and along with Lazarus her brother, and with whom all the circumstances of the affair suit; and though the fact was not yet done, yet John writing many years after it was done, and when it was well known, proleptically, and in a parenthesis, takes notice of it here:

and wiped his feet with her hair;
instead of a napkin, after she had anointed them with oil; (See Gill on Luke 7:37), (See Gill on John 12:3).

Whose brother Lazarus was sick;
this is observed, to show how well they were all acquainted with Christ, and affected to him.

Juan 11:2 In-Context

1 Había un hombre enfermo llamado Lázaro, que era de Betania, el pueblo de María y Marta, sus hermanas.
2 María era la misma que ungió con perfume al Señor, y le secó los pies con sus cabellos.
3 Las dos hermanas mandaron a decirle a Jesús: «Señor, tu amigo querido está enfermo».
4 Cuando Jesús oyó esto, dijo: «Esta enfermedad no terminará en muerte, sino que es para la gloria de Dios, para que por ella el Hijo de Dios sea glorificado».
5 Jesús amaba a Marta, a su hermana y a Lázaro.
