Mary

She had a sister called Miriam, who also sat at Yeshua’s feet, and heard his word.

but one thing is needed. Miriam has chosen the good part, which will not be taken away from her.”

Now a certain man was sick, Lazarus from Bethany, of the village of Miriam and her sister, Martha.

It was that Miriam who had anointed the Lord with ointment, and wiped his feet with her hair, whose brother, Lazarus, was sick.

Many of the Judeans had joined the women around Martha and Miriam, to console them concerning their brother.

Then when Martha heard that Yeshua was coming, she went and met him, but Miriam stayed in the house.

When she had said this, she went away, and called Miriam, her sister, secretly, saying, “The Rabbi is here, and is calling you.”

Then the Judeans who were with her in the house, and were consoling her, when they saw Miriam, that she rose up quickly and went out, followed her, saying, “She is going to the tomb to weep there.”

Therefore when Miriam came to where Yeshua was, and saw him, she fell down at his feet, saying to him, “Lord, if you would have been here, my brother wouldn’t have died.”

Therefore many of the Judeans, who came to Miriam and saw what Yeshua did, believed in him.

Miriam, therefore, took a pound of ointment of pure nard, very precious, and anointed the feet of Yeshua, and wiped his feet with her hair. The house was filled with the fragrance of the ointment.
