Luke 7:36-39

Christian Standard Bible

Much Forgiveness, Much Love

³⁶ Then one of the Pharisees invited him to eat with him. He entered the Pharisee’s house and reclined at the table.^{(A) 37} And a woman in the town who was a sinner found out that Jesus was reclining at the table in the Pharisee’s house.^(B) She brought an alabaster jar of perfume ³⁸ and stood behind him at his feet, weeping, and began to wash his feet with her tears. She wiped his feet with her hair, kissing them and anointing them with the perfume.^(C)

³⁹ When the Pharisee who had invited him saw this, he said to himself, “This man, if he were a prophet, would know who and what kind of woman this is who is touching him—she’s a sinner!” ^(D)
