MATTHEW 26:10 — KING JAMES VERSION 0 0
“When Jesus understood it, he said unto them, Why trouble ye the woman? for she hath wrought a good work upon me.”
But Jesus, aware of this, said to them: why do you trouble the woman? For she has done a beautiful thing to me. Jesus' defense of the woman: she has done a beautiful thing. The beautiful thing communicates the aesthetic and spiritual fittingness of the act — the kalon ergon (literally the good work or the beautiful act) is not mere sentiment but the act that corresponds perfectly to the significance of the moment.
