A woman of poor reputation came forward and washed the feet of Jesus, dried them with her hair, then anointed him with precious ointment. Simon the Pharisee claimed that if Jesus was really any kind of a prophet. he would have known the reputation of the woman and rejected her attentions. Jesus used a parable to tell Simon that although her sins had been many she was forgiven because she had shown great love, whereas people to whom little is forgiven love little.
