'Oil' in the Bible

While He was in Bethany at the house of Simon who had a serious skin disease, as He was reclining at the table, a woman came with an alabaster jar of pure and expensive fragrant oil of nard. She broke the jar and poured it on His head.

But some were expressing indignation to one another: “Why has this fragrant oil been wasted?

For this oil might have been sold for more than 300 denarii and given to the poor.” And they began to scold her.

She has done what she was able: she has put oil on my body to make it ready for its last resting-place.
