Mary and Judas
John 12:1-16
Then Jesus six days before the passover came to Bethany, where Lazarus was, which had been dead, whom he raised from the dead.…


The parts of Mary and Judas in respect to the death of Christ are brought into sharp contrast. Mary in her devotion unconsciously provides for the honour of the dead. Judas in his selfishness unconsciously brings about the death itself.

(Bp. Westcott.)
