to him you have judged truly. He turned to the woman and said to Simon do you
see this woman? When I entered your house, you did not give me even water for
my feet. She has wet my feet with her tears and wiped them with her hair. You
did not kiss me. She since she entered has not ceased to kiss my feet. You did
not anoint my head with oil. She has anointed me with perfume. I say to you her
many sins are forgiven because she loved much. He to whom little is forgiven
loves little. He said to the woman your sins are forgiven. Then the guests began
to say within themselves. Who is this man who forgives even sins? So, Jesus
said to the woman your faith has saved you go in peace.

Judas

Judah of Iscariot one of his followers said why was not this oil sold for three
hundred pennies and given to the poor? He said this not because he cared for
the poor. He was a thief carrying the purse whatever was put into it was with him.
Jesus said let her alone. You have the poor always with you but me you have not
always.

He also said to him who had invited him. When you give a dinner or a supper do
not invite your friends; your brothers; your relatives or your rich neighbors. They
in time will invite you for dinner or supper. You then will be repaid. When you
give, a reception invite the poor; the maimed; the lame and the blind. You will be
blessed. They have nothing to repay you. You will be repaid at the resurrection of
the righteous. When one of the guests heard, and saw these issues he said to
Jesus blessed is he who will eat bread in the kingdom of God.

Mary and Martha

When he arrived at Bethany, on the side of the mountain which is called the
Mount of Olives they lodged there. A woman named Martha received him into her
house. Jesus and some of his follower reclined in the house of Martha. Martha
had a sister whose name was Mary and she came and sat at the feet of our Lord
and listened to his words. Martha was busy with many household cares and she
came and said to him my Lord you do not seem to care that my sister has left me
to serve alone? Tell her to help me. Jesus answered and said to her Martha,
Martha you are worried and excited about many things. One thing is more
important and Mary has chosen the beneficial portion for herself which shall not
be taken away from her.

A Scribe Questions Jesus

A scribe stood up and he said Teacher, what shall I do to inherit eternal life?
Jesus said to him what is written in the law? How do you interpret it? He
answered saying to him you must love the Lord your God with all your heart; with
all your soul; with all your strength; and with your entire mind. Love your neighbor
