“Thou gavest me no kiss: but this woman since the time I came in hath not ceased to kiss my feet.”
You did not give me a kiss, but this woman, from the time I entered, has not stopped kissing my feet — the contrast between the minimum hospitality Simon offered and the maximum the woman gave: Simon gave no greeting kiss (a social courtesy), while she has not stopped kissing Jesus' feet. The comparison is not an accusation of hostility but an observation about the disparity in reception.
