But he rebuked the disciples, saying, “Ye have the poor with you always, and whensoever ye will ye may do them good; but me ye have not always. She hath done what she could. She is come aforehand to anoint my body to the burying. Verily, I say unto you, wheresoever this gospel shall be preached throughout the whole world, this also that she hath done shall be spoken of for a memorial of her.” Jesus, looking into the future, spoke with certainty concerning his gospel: That it was to be preached throughout the whole world. Kingdoms would rise and fall; the names of monarchs and conquerors would be forgotten; but the memory of this woman’s deed would be immortalized upon the pages of sacred history. {2SP 378.2}

Marias offer.

Men Jesus irettesatte disciplene, idet han siger: "De fattige har I altid hos jer; men mig har I ikke altid. thi da hun udgød denne salve over mit legeme, gjorde hun det som en beredelse for min jordefærd. Sandelig siger jeg eder: hvor som helst i hele verden dette evangelium prædikes, skal også det, som hun har gjort, fortælles til minde om hende." (Matt 26,11-13) Jesus så ind i fremtiden og vidnede forud om sit evangelium, at det skulle forkyndes rundt omkring i hele verden. Riger skulle opstå og falde, monarkers og sejrherres navne skulle glemmes; men mindet om denne kvindes gerning skulle foreviges i den hellige skrifts historie.
