VERS. VII.

〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉.
Powred it upon his head as he sate at met.

THerefore it was not the same Supper with that in Joh. XII. 1. for then our Savi∣ours feet were anointed, now his head. I admire that any one should be able to confound these two stories. Oyl perfumed with Spices, was very usual in Feasts, especialy sacred; and it was wont to be poured upon the head of some one present.

* 1.1 The School of Shammai saith, He holds sweet Oyl in his right hand, and a cup of wine in his left. He says Grace first over the Oyl, and then over the wine. The School of Hillel saith, Oyl in his right hand, and wine in his left. He blesseth the sweet Oyl and anoynts the head of him that serves: but if the waiter be a Disciple of the Wise, he anoynts the wall; for it is a shame for a Disciple of the Wise to smell of perfumes. Here the waiter anoynts the head of him that sits down.
