³ Jesus was in Bethany at the house of ·Simon, who had a skin disease [^LSimon the leper; ^Cfor leprosy, see 1:40; Simon may have been healed by Jesus]. While Jesus was ·eating there [^Lreclining; ^Cthe posture for a banquet or dinner party; 2:15], a woman approached him with an alabaster ·jar [vial] filled with very expensive perfume, made of pure nard. She ·opened [broke open] the ·jar [vial] and poured the perfume on Jesus’ head.
