John 12:3

In context

1Six days before the Passover, Jesus came to Bethany, where Lazarus lived — the man Jesus had raised from the dead. 2There they gave a dinner for him. Martha served, and Lazarus was one of those reclining at the table with him. 3Then Mary took a pound of pure nard, a costly perfume, anointed the feet of Jesus, and dried his feet with her hair; and the house was filled with the fragrance of the perfume. 4But Judas Iscariot, one of his disciples — the one who was going to betray him — said, 5“Why wasn’t this perfume sold for three hundred denarii and the money given to the poor?”
