Why does Jesus consider this woman`s desire to please Jesus more important than giving to the poor?
Because she has done a good work for Jesus. They always have the poor with them , and whenever they want to, they can do them good, but they will not always have Jesus. This woman had done what she could and has anointed Jesus' body beforehand for the burying. By: Kah Bik Cheong - October 13, 2007 - Public Category: Jesus Anointed at Bethany

What the woman did was very important to Jesus because He considered what she did anointing Him for last burial which nobody will be able to do during the time of His crufication. To the poor? You can give to the poor at any available time, while what she did to Christ could only be done by chance. By: Fasakin Adebayo Joseph - August 28, 2007 - Public Category: Jesus Anointed at Bethany

Jesus cosiders this woman's desire o please Jesus more important than giving to the poor because that day was two days before the passover and Jesus was to be killed and wuld not be with them any longer.

Because the woman anointed Jesus body before his burial she was doing a good thing for the son of God. And Jesus said that she would be remembered when the gospel is preached around the world. Yes, Jesus wants us to give to the poor and help others who are in need. But putting God first including the son of God is more important for everyone. Give God the Glory and Jesus Christ is our Lord and Savior. Amen! By: Al Benavides - August 27, 2007 - Public Category: Jesus Anointed at Bethany

I think Jesus was touched by this woman's belief in Him and her acceptance of His prophecy that He was soon to be killed and her acting on His Word by annointing him before His death. The poor will always be among us, but He was here but for a short time. Her actions honored Him.

because she had annointed the body of christ preparing it for burrial...and also for that the poor will always be with them, and Jesus was on the way...thank you! By: Silas Kaunda Matiku - August 27, 2007 - Public Category: Jesus Anointed at Bethany
It was now two days before the feast of the Passover and the unleavened bread, and the chief priests and the scribes sought how they might seize him by deception, and kill him. For they said, "Not during the feast, because there might be a riot of the people."
While he was at Bethany, in the house of Simon the leper, as he sat at the table, a woman came having an alabaster jar of ointment of pure nard--very costly. She broke the jar, and poured it over his head. But there were some who were indignant among themselves, saying, "Why has this ointment been wasted? For this might have been sold for more than three hundred denarii, and given to the poor." They grumbled against her.
But Jesus said, "Leave her alone. Why do you trouble her? She has done a good work for me. For you always have the poor with you, and whenever you want to, you can do them good; but you will not always have me. She has done what she could. She has anointed my body beforehand for the burying. Most certainly I tell you, wherever this Good News may be preached throughout the whole world, that which this woman has done will also be spoken of for a memorial of her." Judas Iscariot, who was one of the twelve, went away to the chief priests, that he might deliver him to them. They, when they heard it, were glad, and promised to give him money. He sought how he might conveniently deliver him.
