Contextual Overview

1 A certayne man was sicke, named Lazarus of Bethanie, the towne of Marie and her sister Martha. 2 (It was that Marie which anoynted ye Lorde with oyntment, and wyped his feete with her heere, whose brother Lazarus was sicke.) 3 Therfore, his sisters sent vnto hym, saying: Lorde, beholde, he whom thou louest is sicke. 4 When Iesus hearde that, he sayde, this infirmitie is not vnto death: but for the glory of God, that the sonne of God, myght be glorified therby. 5 Iesus loued Martha, and her sister, and Lazarus. 6 When he had hearde therfore that he was sicke, he abode two dayes styll in the same place where he was. 7 Then after that, sayde he to his disciples: Let vs go into Iurie agayne. 8 His disciples sayde vnto hym: Maister, the Iewes lately sought to stone thee, and wylt thou go thither agayne? 9 Iesus aunswered: Are there not twelue houres of the day? If any man walke in the day, he stumbleth not, because he seeth the lyght of this worlde. 10 But yf a man walke in the nyght, he stumbleth, because there is no lyght in hym.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

It was [that] Mary which anointed the Lord with ointment,.... Not the woman in Luke 7:37, as some have thought, whose name is not mentioned, and which history is not related by John at all: but Mary in John 12:3, who is both mentioned by name, and along with Lazarus her brother, and with whom all the circumstances of the affair suit; and though the fact was not yet done, yet John writing many years after it was done, and when it was well known, proleptically, and in a parenthesis, takes notice of it here:

and wiped his feet with her hair; instead of a napkin, after she had anointed them with oil; John 12:3- :,

John 12:3- :.

Whose brother Lazarus was sick; this is observed, to show how well they were all acquainted with Christ, and affected to him.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

It was that Mary ... - See the Matthew 26:6 note; Luke 7:36-50 notes.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse John 11:2. It was that Mary which anointed — There is much disagreement between learned men relative to the two anointings of our Lord, and the persons who performed these acts. The various conjectures concerning these points the reader will find in the notes on Matthew 26:7, c., but particularly at the end of that chapter. Matthew 26:7- :

Dr. Lightfoot inquires, Why should Bethany be called the town of Martha and Mary, and not of Lazarus? And he thinks the reason is, that Martha and Mary had been well known by that anointing of our Lord, which is mentioned Luke 7:37 (see the note there;) but the name of Lazarus had not been mentioned till now, there being no transaction by which he could properly be brought into view. He therefore thinks that the aorist αλειψασα, which we translate anointed, should have its full force, and be translated, who had formerly anointed; and this he thinks to have been the reason of that familiarity which subsisted between our Lord and this family; and, on this ground, they could confidently send for our Lord when Lazarus fell sick. This seems a very reasonable conjecture; and it is very likely that the familiarity arose out of the anointing.

Others think that the anointing of which the evangelist speaks is that mentioned John 12:1, &c., and which happened about six days before the passover. St. John, therefore, is supposed to anticipate the account, because it served more particularly to designate the person of whom he was speaking.
