The event (or events – see discussion below) is reported in Matthew 26, Mark 14, Luke 7, and John 12. [2] Matthew and Mark are very similar: Matthew 26:6–13. While Jesus was in Bethany in the home of Simon the Leper, a woman came to him with an alabaster jar of very expensive perfume, which she poured on his head as he was reclining at the table.
An alternative explanation for the similarities is that the Luke 7 anointing and the anointing at Bethany [9] [10] [11] happened with some of the same participants, but several years apart. [ 12 ] Simon the Leper is also sometimes identified as the same person as Lazarus of Bethany, or identified as his father or brother [ citation needed ] .
These include the unnamed woman's head-anointing of Jesus in Bethany (Mark 14, Matthew 26), the sinful woman's feet-anointing (and hair-wiping) of Jesus in Galilee (Luke 7; these first two may have a common origin, the Lukan account likely being derived from Mark), Jesus' visit to Martha and Mary in the unnamed Galilean village , Jesus' parable ...
Simon was a Pharisee mentioned in the Gospel of Luke (Luke 7:36-50) as the host of a meal, who invited Jesus to eat in his house but failed to show him the usual marks of hospitality offered to visitors - a greeting kiss (v. 45), water to wash his feet (v. 44), or oil for his head (v. 46).
The dinner in the house of Simon the Leper, at which Jesus was anointed – Matthew 26:6-13, [25] Mark 14:3-9, [26] and John 12:1-8 [27] Before the Ascension of Jesus into heaven – Luke 24:50 [28] In Luke 10:38-42, [29] a visit of Jesus to the home of Mary and Martha is described, but the village of Bethany is not named (nor whether Jesus is ...
Luke 19:28–31. Jesus, the disciples and the crowd went to Bethphage and Bethany from Jericho (19:1–11). Jesus ordered two disciples: "In that village you'll find a colt, untie it and bring it to me." "Say that the Lord needs it." John 12:12–13. Jesus and disciples went to Bethany (12:1) from Ephraim (11:54): no instructions for disciples
Luke starts with his legal father Joseph and lists 73 people between Joseph and Adam, who Luke says is "...the Son of God", [30] thus having 75 people between God and Jesus. This genealogy is longer than Matthew's, works retrospectively from Jesus back to Adam, [ 31 ] (whereas Matthew's runs chronologically forward from Abraham to Jesus), and ...
Mark states in Mark 1:1 that his book is "the good news of Jesus the anointed one", [13] the word Christ meaning "anointed". The woman understands Jesus' importance more than do the other people there. It is also a signal to the reader that as Jesus is being anointed for burial the plot against him will succeed. (Brown 145)
