Azon időben egy farizeus meghívta Jézust, hogy egyék nála. Betért hát a farizeus házába, és asztalhoz telepedett. És így tovább.

Homily by Pope St Gregory (the Great.)
!33rd on the Gospels.
Of what is the Pharisee that was exalted by self-righteousness a type, but of the Jewish people And of what the woman which was a sinner and came and wept at the Lord's feet, but of the conversion of the Gentiles She brought an alabaster box of ointment, and stood at His feet behind Him weeping, and began to wash His Feet with tears, and did wipe them with the hairs of her head, and kissed His Feet, and anointed them with the ointment. Of us, therefore, even of us, was that woman a type, if after our sins we turn unto the Lord with all our heart, and imitate the example of her repentant grief. And of what is the ointment a type, but of the sweet savour of a good reputation Whence also Paul saith (God maketh manifest the savour of His knowledge by us) in every place ~(for) we are unto God a sweet savour of Christ. (2 Cor. ii. 15.)
