204 Matthew 26A The Anointing - Head or Feet

As we unpack this chapter we note that Jesus references his imminent death seven times in this chapter and three times in the book of Matthew and yet because it went against their narrative they miss this entirely and his death catches them totally by surprise. One wonders what Jesus could have shared with them if they had come to believe what he was wanting them to understand. Then in Bethany Jesus is anointed by a woman while at a meal in Simeon's home. After this event Judas agrees to betray Jesus into the hands of the pharisees. We conclude this episode with the story of the Last Supper.
