Juan 12:3 Meaning and Commentary

John 12:3

Then took Mary a pound of ointment of spikenard very costly,
&c.] Worth three hundred pence, according to Judas's estimation of it. This Mary was the other sister of Lazarus; (See Gill on Matthew 26:7), (See Gill on Mark 14:3), concerning the nature and value of this ointment:

and anointed the feet of Jesus;
as he lay upon the bed or couch, at supper:

and wiped his feet with her hair; (See Gill on Luke 7:38).

And the house was filled with the odour of the ointment;
see ( Song of Solomon 1:3 Song of Solomon 1:12 ) ; ointment of spikenard was very odoriferous: this may be an emblem of the sweet savour of Christ, in the ministration of the Gospel, throughout the whole world.

Juan 12:3 In-Context

1 Jesús, pues, seis días antes de la Pascua, vino a Betania, donde Lázaro había sido muerto, al cual Jesús había resucitado de los muertos.
2 Y le hicieron allí una cena y Marta servía, y Lázaro era uno de los que estaban sentados a la mesa juntamente con él.
3 Entonces MarĂ­a tomĂł una libra de ungĂĽento de nardo lĂ­quido, de mucho precio, y ungiĂł los pies de JesĂşs, y limpiĂł sus pies con sus cabellos; y la casa se llenĂł del olor del ungĂĽento.
4 Y dijo uno de sus discĂ­pulos, Judas Iscariote, hijo de SimĂłn, el que le habĂ­a de entregar:
5 ¿Por qué no se ha vendido este ungüento por trescientos denarios, y se dio a los pobres?
