Finding Peace and Wholeness in JesusNäide

In this final part, Jesus compares the woman’s behavior towards him with the religious leader’s behavior towards him, and he calls out his silent judgement, his hypocrisy and his inability to recognize Jesus for who he is.

Jesus often spoke well of those who decided to turn away from their sin yet were deemed at that time to be the lowest in society, such as women, people who weren’t Jewish, tax collectors and prostitutes. This ruffled the feathers of those who were considered to be elite and perfectly moral in their society, such as religious leaders.

What do you think about the way Jesus responded to the woman? The person who invited him into his house? The other guests? How does it make you feel? How does this help you to appreciate Jesus more?
