The night before his Triumphal Entry into Jerusalem, Jesus shares a meal with his beloved friends Martha, Mary, and Lazarus (John 12:1-8) - a meal at which Mary pours costly perfume on the feet of Jesus and wipes his feet with her hair. This sacrificial act of love is a demonstration of Mary’s gratitude and devotion for Jesus - and a signifier of the sacrificial love Jesus demonstrates for us all.
