12:1 The Royal Entrance into Jerusalem

SUMMARY OF JOHN 12:

The Feast at Bethany. The Anointing by Mary. The Anger of Judas. The Jews Purpose to Put Lazarus to Death. The Entrance into Jerusalem. The Greeks Seeking Jesus. The Hour Is Come. The Voice from Heaven. The Son of Man to Be Lifted Up. The Cause of Unbelief.

Jesus six days before the passover came to Bethany. From the other Gospels we learn that he went from Ephraim beyond the Jordan and came back through Jericho with the great company of Galileans who came to attend the passover. The supper at Bethany was Saturday evening before he was crucified.

Wesley's Notes

12:1 Six days before the passover - Namely, on the Sabbath: that which was called by the Jews, The Great Sabbath. This whole week was anciently termed The great and holy week. Jesus came - From Ephraim, John 11:54.

Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Bible Commentary

CHAPTER 12

Joh 12:1-11. The Anointing at Bethany.

(See on [1836]Mt 26:6-13).

1-8. six days before the passover-that is, on the sixth day before it; probably after sunset on Friday evening, or the commencement of the Jewish sabbath preceding the passover.

Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary

12:1-11 Christ had formerly blamed Martha for being troubled with much serving. But she did not leave off serving, as some, who when found fault with for going too far in one way, peevishly run too far another way; she still served, but within hearing of Christ's gracious words. Mary gave a token of love to Christ, who had given real tokens of his love to her and her family. God's Anointed should be our Anointed. Has God poured on him the oil of gladness above his fellows, let us pour on him the ointment of our best affections. In Judas a foul sin is gilded over with a plausible pretence. We must not think that those do no acceptable service, who do it not in our way. The reigning love of money is heart-theft. The grace of Christ puts kind comments on pious words and actions, makes the best of what is amiss, and the most of what is good. Opportunities are to be improved; and those first and most vigorously, which are likely to be the shortest. To consult to hinder the further effect of the miracle, by putting Lazarus to death, is such wickedness, malice, and folly, as cannot be explained, except by the desperate enmity of the human heart against God. They resolved that the man should die whom the Lord had raised to life. The success of the gospel often makes wicked men so angry, that they speak and act as if they hoped to obtain a victory over the Almighty himself.


Matthew 21:17 And He left them and went out of the city to Bethany, and spent the night there.
Matthew 26:6 Now when Jesus was in Bethany, at the home of Simon the leper,
Mark 14:3 While He was in Bethany at the home of Simon the leper, and reclining at the table, there came a woman with an alabaster vial of very costly perfume of pure nard; and she broke the vial and poured it over His head.
Luke 7:37 And there was a woman in the city who was a sinner; and when she learned that He was reclining at the table in the Pharisee's house, she brought an alabaster vial of perfume,
John 11:43 When He had said these things, He cried out with a loud voice, "Lazarus, come forth."
John 11:55 Now the Passover of the Jews was near, and many went up to Jerusalem out of the country before the Passover to purify themselves.
John 12:20 Now there were some Greeks among those who were going up to worship at the feast; (NASB ©1995)
