Mark 14:1-5

Now the Passover and Festival of Unleavened Bread were two days away; and the chief priests and the scribes were seeking how to arrest Him covertly and kill Him;

for they were saying, “Not during the festival, otherwise there will be a riot of the people.”

While He was in Bethany at the home of Simon the Leper, He was reclining at the table, and a woman came with an alabaster vial of very expensive perfume of pure nard. She broke the vial and poured the perfume over His head.

But there were some indignantly remarking to one another, “Why has this perfume been wasted?

For this perfume could have been sold for over three hundred denarii, and the money given to the poor.” And they were scolding her.
