John’s Gospel - Session 31. The Fragrance of Worship

It was custom to pour a few drops of perfume on a guest when he arrived at a house or when he sat to eat. But Mary broke the flask and poured the entire contents of it on Jesus. The perfume filled the air. It seemed wasteful. But she didn’t care what others thought, or about her reputation. Neither did she consider the cost. hers was extravagant worship.
