Six days before Passover, Jesus ate dinner with His friends Mary, Martha, and Lazarus.
Mary took a jar of very expensive perfume and poured it all on Jesus' feet. Then she wiped His feet with her hair. The whole house smelled wonderful!
Judas complained, “That was a waste of money!” But Jesus said, “Leave her alone. She did a beautiful thing for me.”
