When they had nothing to pay, he
freely forgave them both. Tell me, therefore, which of them will love
him most? Simon answered and said, I suppose it would be he whom he
forgave most. Jesus said, Thou has rightly judged.
Jesus turned to the woman, and said to Simon, See this woman? When I
entered your house, you gave me no water for my feet. But she has
washed my feet with tears, and wiped them with the hair of her head.
When I entered your house, you gave me no kiss. But this woman, since
the time I came in, has not ceased to kiss my feet. You did not anoint
my head with oil. But this woman has anointed my feet with ointment.
So I say to thee, Her sins, which are many, are forgiven for she loved
much; but to whom little is forgiven, the same loves little. Jesus said
to her, Thy sins are forgiven. Those who sat at supper with Him began
to wonder, Who is this that forgives sins also? Then Jesus said to the
woman, Thy faith has saved thee; go in peace.
8 Afterward, He went throughout every city and village, preaching
and showing the glad tidings of the kingdom of God, and the twelve were
with Him. A woman, Mary called Magdalene, who had been healed of evil
spirits and out of whom went seven devils; and Joanna, the wife of
Herod's steward, Chuza; and Susanna; and many others provided for and
ministered to Him.
