"This in-depth but readable study examines the story of the sinful woman who anoints Christ with precious oil shortly before his Passion and Crucifixion as found in the Scriptures and in the liturgical tradition of the Orthodox Christian Church in Holy Week. It shows her as an example of repentance and unconstrained love in hymns, liturgical poetry, and in the oratorical tradition of the Church, as found primarily in Greek and Syriac manuscripts including the homilies by Amphilochius of Iconium and Ephrem Graecus (found here in English for the first time). This expounds the stories found in the four biblical Gospels"-- Provided by publisher.
