00:08:22.420 --> 00:08:25.139
He<00:08:22.540><c> simply</c><00:08:22.839><c> kept</c><00:08:23.060><c> the</c><00:08:23.259><c> law</c><00:08:23.379><c> from</c><00:08:23.779><c> what</c><00:08:23.939><c> he</c><00:08:24.100><c> could</c><00:08:24.279><c> profit.</c>

And<00:25:36.650><c> he</c><00:25:36.849><c> is</c><00:25:36.970><c> the</c><00:25:37.109><c> one</c><00:25:37.210><c> that</c><00:25:37.369><c> is</c><00:25:37.609><c> having</c><00:25:37.769><c> this</c><00:25:38.150><c> thought.</c>

00:25:39.250 --> 00:25:42.289
It's<00:25:39.410><c> almost</c><00:25:39.650><c> a</c><00:25:39.930><c> replica,</c><00:25:40.309><c> isn't</c><00:25:40.410><c> it,</c><00:25:41.049><c> of</c><00:25:41.329><c> the</c><00:25:41.809><c> parable</c><00:25:42.089><c> that</c>

00:26:14.230 --> 00:26:16.509
And<00:26:14.609><c> perhaps</c><00:26:14.910><c> brothers</c><00:26:15.150><c> and</c><00:26:15.369><c> sisters</c><00:26:15.569><c> we</c><00:26:15.809><c> need</c><00:26:15.990><c> to</c><00:26:16.289><c> examine</c>

00:26:30.490 --> 00:26:32.490
And<00:26:30.670><c> we</c><00:26:30.829><c> look</c><00:26:31.009><c> at</c><00:26:31.250><c> them</c><00:26:31.509><c> and</c><00:26:31.650><c> we</c><00:26:31.849><c> criticize</c><00:26:32.289><c> them</c>

00:26:32.490 --> 00:26:35.190

and<00:32:22.829><c> we</c><00:32:22.950><c> think</c><00:32:23.089><c> of</c><00:32:23.210><c> this</c><00:32:23.349><c> woman</c><00:32:23.569><c> here</c><00:32:23.890><c> and</c><00:32:24.049><c> her</c><00:32:24.250><c> past,</c>

00:32:24.970 --> 00:32:26.869

00:32:26.869 --> 00:32:30.930
this<00:32:27.369><c> incident</c><00:32:27.849><c> expresses</c><00:32:28.490><c> to</c><00:32:28.829><c> us</c><00:32:29.690><c> the</c><00:32:30.210><c> understanding</c>

00:32:30.930 --> 00:32:35.089
that<00:32:31.509><c> the</c><00:32:31.670><c> Lord</c><00:32:31.849><c> Jesus</c><00:32:32.369><c> Christ</c><00:32:33.049><c> will</c><00:32:33.690><c> listen</c><00:32:34.309><c> patiently</c>

00:32:35.089 --> 00:32:38.289
and<00:32:35.890><c> openly</c><00:32:36.329><c> to</c><00:32:36.690><c> our</c><00:32:37.009><c> expressions.</c>

00:32:41.869 --> 00:32:44.369
This<00:32:41.890><c> woman</c><00:32:42.170><c> had</c><00:32:42.789><c> such</c><00:32:43.109><c> a</c><00:32:43.390><c> remarkable</c><00:32:43.890><c> character</c>

00:32:44.369 --> 00:32:50.410
and<00:32:44.650><c> obviously</c><00:32:45.230><c> the</c><00:32:46.390><c> Lord</c><00:32:46.589><c> was</c><00:32:47.769><c> aware</c><00:32:48.410><c> of</c><00:32:49.529><c> how</c><00:32:49.750><c> she</c><00:32:49.970><c> was</c><00:32:50.190><c> feeling</c>

00:32:50.410 --> 00:32:52.029
and<00:32:50.750><c> as</c><00:32:50.990><c> we</c><00:32:51.170><c> go</c><00:32:51.349><c> through</c><00:32:51.529><c> the</c><00:32:51.710><c> narrative,</c>

00:32:52.029 --> 00:32:57.529
we<00:32:52.130><c> can</c><00:32:52.349><c> pick</c><00:32:52.609><c> up</c><00:32:53.170><c> on</c><00:32:53.390><c> a</c><00:32:53.410><c> lot</c><00:32:53.569><c> of</c><00:32:53.789><c> detail</c><00:32:54.230><c> of</c><00:32:54.430><c> this</c><00:32:55.690><c> woman's</c><00:32:56.670><c> character.</c>

00:32:57.630 --> 00:33:00.349
The<00:32:57.950><c> first</c><00:32:58.269><c> point</c><00:32:58.529><c> is</c><00:32:58.690><c> that</c><00:32:58.789><c> she</c><00:32:58.890><c> was</c><00:32:59.029><c> very</c><00:32:59.309><c> courageous.</c>

00:33:00.509 --> 00:33:02.809
She<00:33:00.670><c> went</c><00:33:00.849><c> into</c><00:33:01.069><c> the</c><00:33:01.309><c> Pharisee's</c><00:33:01.910><c> house.</c>

00:33:03.829 --> 00:33:04.930
She<00:33:03.970><c> was</c><00:33:04.170><c> also</c><00:33:04.490><c> thoughtful.</c>

00:33:05.349 --> 00:33:08.250
She'd<00:33:05.849><c> thought</c><00:33:06.029><c> about</c><00:33:06.289><c> this</c><00:33:06.609><c> before,</c><00:33:07.069><c> obviously,</c>

00:33:09.069 --> 00:33:11.910
because<00:33:09.369><c> she</c><00:33:09.650><c> bought</c><00:33:09.930><c> an</c><00:33:10.289><c> alabaster</c><00:33:10.930><c> box</c><00:33:11.349><c> of</c><00:33:11.569><c> ointment.</c>

00:33:11.950 --> 00:33:14.509
So<00:33:12.390><c> it</c><00:33:12.630><c> wasn't</c><00:33:12.930><c> a</c><00:33:13.250><c> spur</c><00:33:13.490><c> of</c><00:33:13.690><c> the</c><00:33:13.890><c> moment</c><00:33:14.170><c> thing,</c>

00:33:14.529 --> 00:33:16.150
but<00:33:14.670><c> she</c><00:33:14.849><c> felt</c><00:33:15.029><c> this</c><00:33:15.309><c> pressure</c><00:33:15.549><c> building</c><00:33:15.869><c> up</c>

00:33:16.150 --> 00:33:17.710
and<00:33:16.269><c> she</c><00:33:16.450><c> knew</c><00:33:16.569><c> that</c><00:33:16.690><c> she</c><00:33:16.849><c> wanted</c><00:33:16.990><c> to</c><00:33:17.109><c> reach</c><00:33:17.309><c> the</c><00:33:17.529><c> Lord.</c>

00:33:18.049 --> 00:33:20.589
And<00:33:18.250><c> here</c><00:33:18.329><c> was</c><00:33:18.490><c> the</c><00:33:18.670><c> moment</c><00:33:18.809><c> of</c><00:33:18.990><c> opportunity</c><00:33:19.470><c> and</c><00:33:19.769><c> she</c><00:33:20.049><c> grasped</c><00:33:20.470><c> hold</c>

00:33:20.589 --> 00:33:21.109
of<00:33:20.789><c> it.</c>

00:33:21.109 --> 00:33:24.170
There<00:33:21.809><c> was</c><00:33:22.390><c> great</c><00:33:22.789><c> respect</c><00:33:23.190><c> for</c><00:33:23.369><c> the</c><00:33:23.470><c> Lord</c><00:33:23.630><c> Jesus</c><00:33:23.930><c> Christ</c>

00:33:24.170 --> 00:33:27.289
in<00:33:24.470><c> contrast</c><00:33:25.029><c> to</c><00:33:25.809><c> the</c><00:33:26.009><c> Pharisee.</c>

00:33:27.369 --> 00:33:30.349
There<00:33:27.430><c> was</c><00:33:27.470><c> no</c><00:33:27.670><c> respect</c><00:33:28.049><c> on</c><00:33:28.430><c> his</c><00:33:28.789><c> part</c><00:33:29.130><c> for</c><00:33:29.329><c> Jesus.</c>

00:33:31.589 --> 00:33:33.289
He<00:33:31.849><c> thought</c><00:33:32.049><c> he</c><00:33:32.150><c> was</c><00:33:32.390><c> a</c><00:33:32.589><c> pseudo</c><00:33:32.970><c> prophet</c>

00:33:33.289 --> 00:33:35.789
and<00:33:33.549><c> he</c><00:33:33.650><c> was</c><00:33:33.829><c> going</c><00:33:33.910><c> to</c><00:33:34.150><c> examine</c><00:33:34.650><c> his</c><00:33:35.049><c> conversation</c>

00:33:35.789 --> 00:33:38.069
and<00:33:36.549><c> how</c><00:33:36.769><c> he</c><00:33:37.109><c> reacted</c><00:33:37.390><c> in</c><00:33:37.630><c> the</c><00:33:37.789><c> house</c>

00:33:38.069 --> 00:33:39.650
and<00:33:38.490><c> make</c><00:33:38.630><c> an</c><00:33:38.829><c> evaluation</c><00:33:39.309><c> from</c><00:33:39.569><c> that.</c>

00:33:39.730 --> 00:33:41.089
So<00:33:39.809><c> there</c><00:33:39.890><c> was</c><00:33:39.970><c> no</c><00:33:40.170><c> respect</c><00:33:40.470><c> on</c><00:33:40.650><c> his</c><00:33:40.910><c> part,</c>

00:33:41.109 --> 00:33:43.809
but<00:33:41.269><c> she</c><00:33:41.529><c> stood</c><00:33:41.789><c> at</c><00:33:41.990><c> his</c><00:33:42.190><c> feet</c><00:33:42.430><c> and</c><00:33:42.970><c> the</c><00:33:43.230><c> record</c><00:33:43.410><c> particularly</c>

00:33:43.809 --> 00:33:45.190
says<00:33:44.089><c> behind</c><00:33:44.730><c> him.</c>

00:33:45.690 --> 00:33:47.049
There<00:33:45.910><c> was</c><00:33:46.109><c> emotion,</c><00:33:46.470><c> obviously.</c>

00:33:47.470 --> 00:33:49.549
There<00:33:47.730><c> was</c><00:33:48.170><c> humility.</c>

00:33:49.549 --> 00:33:52.390
Here<00:33:49.789><c> she</c><00:33:49.849><c> wiped</c><00:33:50.430><c> his</c><00:33:51.170><c> feet</c><00:33:51.509><c> with</c><00:33:51.930><c> her</c><00:33:52.230><c> hair.</c>

00:33:52.470 --> 00:33:54.250
And<00:33:52.569><c> just</c><00:33:52.710><c> think</c><00:33:52.910><c> about</c><00:33:53.329><c> that</c><00:33:53.670><c> situation,</c>

00:33:54.690 --> 00:33:56.390
the<00:33:54.970><c> tenderness</c><00:33:55.349><c> of</c><00:33:55.529><c> that</c><00:33:55.710><c> situation.</c>

00:33:56.710 --> 00:33:57.470
It<00:33:56.829><c> wasn't</c><00:33:56.930><c> with</c><00:33:57.109><c> a</c><00:33:57.309><c> cloth.</c>

00:33:57.549 --> 00:33:58.930
She<00:33:57.650><c> didn't</c><00:33:57.809><c> rub</c><00:33:58.009><c> it</c><00:33:58.210><c> dry</c><00:33:58.289><c> with</c><00:33:58.470><c> a</c><00:33:58.690><c> cloth.</c>

00:33:59.329 --> 00:34:02.730
This<00:33:59.589><c> woman</c><00:34:00.029><c> wanted</c><00:34:00.390><c> to</c><00:34:00.670><c> open</c><00:34:00.849><c> up</c><00:34:01.109><c> herself</c><00:34:01.490><c> so</c><00:34:02.130><c> much</c><00:34:02.470><c> to</c><00:34:02.630><c> the</c>

00:34:02.730 --> 00:34:04.309
Lord<00:34:02.890><c> Jesus</c><00:34:03.250><c> Christ</c>

00:34:04.349 --> 00:34:07.329
that<00:34:04.609><c> she</c><00:34:04.970><c> washed</c><00:34:05.309><c> his</c><00:34:05.750><c> feet</c><00:34:06.109><c> with</c><00:34:06.650><c> her</c><00:34:06.990><c> hair.</c>

00:34:07.650 --> 00:34:09.469
What<00:34:07.829><c> an</c><00:34:08.090><c> incredible</c><00:34:08.530><c> gesture.</c>

00:34:11.150 --> 00:34:13.750
Now,<00:34:11.670><c> we're</c><00:34:12.190><c> going</c><00:34:12.449><c> to</c><00:34:12.869><c> plumb</c><00:34:13.010><c> this</c><00:34:13.190><c> a</c><00:34:13.269><c> little</c><00:34:13.409><c> bit</c><00:34:13.550><c> more,</c>

00:34:13.789 --> 00:34:16.010
but<00:34:13.969><c> there</c><00:34:14.130><c> was</c><00:34:14.489><c> understanding</c><00:34:15.250><c> on</c><00:34:15.469><c> her</c><00:34:15.769><c> part.</c>

00:34:16.010 --> 00:34:18.349
This<00:34:16.489><c> was</c><00:34:16.889><c> a</c><00:34:17.050><c> woman,</c><00:34:17.849><c> interestingly,</c>

00:34:18.409 --> 00:34:21.849
that<00:34:18.570><c> had</c><00:34:18.769><c> quite</c><00:34:19.050><c> a</c><00:34:19.210><c> deep</c><00:34:19.909><c> spirituality</c><00:34:20.550><c> to</c><00:34:21.050><c> her</c><00:34:21.369><c> understanding</c>

00:34:21.849 --> 00:34:23.449
of<00:34:22.389><c> the</c><00:34:22.570><c> mission</c><00:34:22.750><c> of</c><00:34:22.909><c> Jesus</c><00:34:23.250><c> Christ.</c>

00:34:23.489 --> 00:34:24.949
We're<00:34:23.590><c> going</c><00:34:23.750><c> to</c><00:34:23.969><c> develop</c><00:34:24.170><c> that</c><00:34:24.329><c> a</c><00:34:24.409><c> little</c><00:34:24.510><c> bit</c><00:34:24.650><c> further.</c>

00:34:25.309 --> 00:34:27.849
She<00:34:25.530><c> anointed</c><00:34:26.210><c> the</c><00:34:26.610><c> feet</c><00:34:26.710><c> of</c><00:34:26.989><c> Christ</c><00:34:27.150><c> with</c><00:34:27.349><c> ointment.</c>

00:34:28.349 --> 00:34:31.889
She<00:34:28.469><c> was</c><00:34:28.590><c> very</c><00:34:28.849><c> dedicated</c><00:34:29.650><c> as</c><00:34:30.610><c> she</c><00:34:31.030><c> fastened</c><00:34:31.429><c> to</c><00:34:31.610><c> the</c><00:34:31.750><c> Lord</c>

00:34:31.889 --> 00:34:33.230
Jesus<00:34:32.269><c> Christ.</c>

00:34:33.409 --> 00:34:34.949
She<00:34:33.650><c> was</c><00:34:34.090><c> introspective.</c>

00:34:34.969 --> 00:34:36.869
She<00:34:35.369><c> recognised</c><00:34:35.809><c> her</c><00:34:36.110><c> past</c><00:34:36.409><c> background.</c>

00:34:37.369 --> 00:34:40.590
She<00:34:37.650><c> was</c><00:34:38.409><c> appreciative</c><00:34:39.130><c> of</c><00:34:39.449><c> the</c><00:34:39.630><c> work</c><00:34:39.829><c> of</c><00:34:40.070><c> Christ</c>

00:34:40.590 --> 00:34:45.469
and<00:34:41.250><c> she</c><00:34:41.429><c> was</c><00:34:41.630><c> faithful</c><00:34:42.010><c> as</c><00:34:42.190><c> the</c><00:34:42.369><c> comments</c><00:34:42.809><c> in</c><00:34:43.449><c> verse</c><00:34:43.710><c> 50</c><00:34:44.309><c> relate</c><00:34:44.869><c> to</c>

00:34:45.469 --> 00:34:46.789

00:44:56.230 --> 00:44:58.590
So<00:44:56.449><c> there's</c><00:44:56.610><c> something</c><00:44:56.829><c> like</c><00:44:57.110><c> six</c><00:44:57.389><c> occurrences</c><00:44:57.989><c> just</c><00:44:58.389><c> in</c>

00:44:59.210 --> 00:45:03.489
The<00:44:59.449><c> woman</c><00:44:59.590><c> focuses</c><00:45:00.110><c> on</c><00:45:00.690><c> the</c><00:45:00.929><c> feet</c><00:45:01.130><c> of</c><00:45:01.409><c> the</c><00:45:01.530><c> Lord</c><00:45:01.750><c> Jesus</c><00:45:02.230><c> Christ.</c>

00:45:06.090 --> 00:45:08.869
It's<00:45:06.250><c> of</c><00:45:06.349><c> great</c><00:45:06.570><c> importance</c><00:45:07.010><c> because</c><00:45:07.289><c> as</c><00:45:07.510><c> we're</c><00:45:07.849><c> aware,</c>

00:45:10.050 --> 00:45:13.530

son's<00:45:14.230><c> feet.</c>

00:45:15.070 --> 00:45:19.710
We're<00:45:15.190><c> talking</c><00:45:15.369><c> about</c><00:45:15.650><c> Eve</c><00:45:16.010><c> in</c><00:45:16.449><c> the</c><00:45:16.610><c> Garden</c><00:45:16.989><c> of</c><00:45:17.369><c> Eden,</c><00:45:17.750><c> Genesis</c><00:45:18.070><c> 3</c><00:45:18.429><c>.15.</c>

00:45:19.929 --> 00:45:22.190
There's<00:45:20.050><c> an</c><00:45:20.250><c> aspect</c><00:45:20.550><c> of</c><00:45:21.170><c> the</c><00:45:21.469><c> feet.</c>

Your<00:45:23.050><c> seed</c><00:45:23.309><c> will</c><00:45:23.489><c> have</c><00:45:23.570><c> his</c><00:45:23.869><c> feet</c><00:45:24.050><c> bruised,</c>

00:45:24.489 --> 00:45:27.949
but<00:45:24.730><c> his</c><00:45:25.090><c> feet</c><00:45:25.309><c> will</c><00:45:25.630><c> crush</c><00:45:26.150><c> the</c><00:45:26.670><c> head</c><00:45:26.949><c> of</c><00:45:27.429><c> the</c><00:45:27.630><c> serpent.</c>

Feet<00:45:35.389><c> of</c><00:45:35.530><c> the</c><00:45:35.650><c> Lord</c><00:45:35.809><c> Jesus</c><00:45:36.190><c> Christ.</c>

00:45:37.070 --> 00:45:39.150
We<00:45:37.130><c> know</c><00:45:37.349><c> that</c><00:45:37.869><c> the</c><00:45:38.070><c> feet</c><00:45:38.190><c> of</c><00:45:38.309><c> the</c><00:45:38.429><c> Lord</c><00:45:38.570><c> Jesus</c><00:45:38.889><c> Christ</c>

00:45:39.150 --> 00:45:41.409

00:45:42.269 --> 00:45:44.269
in<00:45:42.469><c> 1</c><00:45:42.630><c> Corinthians</c><00:45:42.969><c> 15</c><00:45:43.489><c> where</c><00:45:43.650><c> it</c><00:45:43.789><c> says,</c>

00:45:44.769 --> 00:45:48.010
eventually<00:45:44.769><c> he</c><00:45:44.949><c> will</c><00:45:45.130><c> put</c><00:45:45.309><c> all</c><00:45:45.670><c> things</c><00:45:46.010><c> under</c><00:45:46.489><c> his</c><00:45:47.070><c> feet.</c>

00:45:50.210 --> 00:45:52.409
And<00:45:50.389><c> so</c><00:45:50.469><c> there</c><00:45:50.610><c> seems</c><00:45:50.769><c> to</c><00:45:50.909><c> be</c><00:45:51.010><c> a</c><00:45:51.130><c> focus</c><00:45:51.409><c> by</c><00:45:51.670><c> this</c><00:45:51.849><c> woman</c><00:45:52.010><c> on</c><00:45:52.210><c> the</c>

00:45:53.829 --> 00:45:58.650
It<00:45:54.429><c> wasn't</c><00:45:54.690><c> an</c><00:45:54.929><c> attraction</c><00:45:55.469><c> as</c><00:45:56.409><c> far</c><00:45:56.690><c> as</c><00:45:56.849><c> his</c><00:45:57.170><c> physical</c><00:45:57.630><c> features</c><00:45:57.969><c> were</c><00:45:58.210><c> concerned.</c>
