And there were some that had indignation within themselves, and said, Why was this waste of the oint ment made? I NTRODUCTION.

What did our Lord say about the beautiful buildings? Why did our Lord announce such a future? Was it unpatriotic for Him to do so ? Why was the temple going to be destroyed? Cp. 2 Chron. 7:19—22; Matt. 23:37, 38. Who was lacking in patriotism—the Son of God who warned of the coming doom, after having done all He could to avert it, or the chief priests, Pharisees, and people, who refused to put away sin and to turn to God ?
