VERS. IX.

〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉.
And be given to the poor.

THAT it was Judas especially who avilled at this, we have reason to believe from what is said of him in another Supper; Joh. XII. 4. Compare this with those words, Joh. XIII. 29. When Jesus said to Judas, what thou doest do quickly, Some thought he had meant, Give something to the poor. That Supper, I presume, was the same with this: and, see, how these things agree! when a complaint arose of that prodigal wast of the Oyntment, here, and before in Ih. XII. and that it seemed unfit to some, that that should be spent so unadvisedly upon our Lord, which might have been bestowed much better, and more fitly upon the poor: how easily might the others think that Christ had spoken to him about giving somewhat to the poor, that he might shew his care of the poor, notwithstanding what he had before said concerning them, and the wast of the Oyntment.
