For the poor always ye have with you; but me ye have not always.
Porque a los pobres siempre los tendrán con ustedes, pero a mí no siempre me tendrán.
Jesús les recuerda que su tiempo con ellos es limitado, mientras que siempre habrá oportunidades para ayudar a los pobres.
📚 Contexto Histórico
In the Gospel of John, this verse occurs during a dinner in Bethany where Mary, the sister of Lazarus, anoints Jesus' feet with expensive perfume as an act of devotion. Judas Iscariot objects, claiming the perfume could have been sold to help the poor, but Jesus responds by emphasizing that while poverty is a persistent issue, his physical presence among them is temporary and leading to his death. This moment highlights the cultural context of first-century Judea, where acts of anointing were significant gestures of honor, and it underscores Jesus' awareness of his impending crucifixion.
