I believe it was so meaningful to Jesus because the whole episode reminded Him of His own death that would have shortly taken place. He better than anyone else knew that they would anoint Him shortly at His death. By: Mirtha Fabro - February 07, 2008 - Public Category: Jesus Anointed at Bethany

Because Mary's love for Jesus was very great. Mary therefore took a pound of ointment of pure nard, very precious and anointed the feet of Jesus and wiped his feet with her hair. Can you image giving some thing that is very valuable to you to anoint the feet of Jesus? Plus use your hair to wipe his feet. Praise the Lord!

According to the Bible "Isiah 61", Jesus is the annointed figure who came to preach the good news and bind up the broken hearted and opening of the prison to those who are bound. Anyway, Mary's annointing was so meaningful to Jesus because it was the preparatory action for the burial of Jesus. Mary was evry humble, devosional,loved Jesus , had the Spirit of appreciation and believed wholeheartly the work and the miracles of Jesus. Mary chose to work for God than anything else. She knew that God will provide everything she need as long as she put God first in her life" Mathews 6 Vs 33". Let us continue our love for God.

Hello dear friends, What she did was indeed great and I believe any man would get suprised about that.But she had reasons to do that Jesus had raised her brother from the dead and this action moved Jesus because he didn't expect her to pour this expensive oil on his feet.To me it's asymbol of surrender and great love to Jesus and I think Jesus too felt the same way, Mary had surrendered whatever she had to Jesus by doing that.

Jesus tell us Himself in Matthew:14:8 - She did what she could. She poured perfume on my body beforehand to prepare for my burial. - I think Jesus was especially touched by this open and beautiful declaration of her love, devotion and belief in Him.

Then six days before
the Passover, Jesus came to Bethany, where Lazarus was, who had been dead,
whom he raised from the dead. So they made him a supper there.
Martha served, but Lazarus was one of those who sat at the table with him.
Mary, therefore, took a
pound of ointment of pure nard, very precious, and
anointed the feet of Jesus, and wiped his feet with her hair. The house
was filled with the fragrance of the ointment. Then Judas Iscariot, Simon's son,
one of his disciples, who would betray him, said, "Why wasn't this ointment
sold for three hundred denarii, and given to the
poor?" Now he said
this, not because he cared for the poor, but because he was a thief, and
having the money box, used to steal what was put into it. But Jesus said, "Leave her alone. She has kept this for the day of my
burial. For you always
have the poor with you, but you don't always have me." A large crowd
therefore of the Jews learned that he was there, and they came, not for
Jesus' sake only, but that they might see Lazarus also, whom he had raised
from the dead. But the
chief priests conspired to put Lazarus to death also, because on account of him many
of the Jews went away and believed in Jesus.
