Bible Question: did this woman really know about jusus impending death and did she come with the intention of anointing his body for burial? |
Bible Answer: Hello stmichael, and welcome to the forum. My answer would be first, if Jesus said that that was what she was doing, then that’s what she was doing. He had been telling His disciples all along that His mission was not one of conquest, but one of sacrifice. But for some reason they just couldn’t seem to get it. It could be that this woman simply listened, and heard, the words the Jesus was saying. Matthew 20:18, 19 “Behold, we are going up to Jerusalem; and the Son of Man will be delivered to the chief priests and scribes, and they will condemn Him to death, and will hand Him over to the Gentiles to mock and scourge and crucify Him, and on the third day He will be raised up."
