Definitions for Matthew 26:10
Clarke's Matthew 26:10 Bible Commentary
Why trouble ye the woman? - Or, Why do ye put the woman to pain? See this sense of κοπους παρεχειν, established by Kypke in loco. A generous mind is ever pained when it is denied the opportunity of doing good, or when its proffered kindness is refused.
Barnes's Matthew 26:10 Bible Commentary
Trouble ye the woman - That is, disturb her mind by insinuations, as if she had done wrong.
A good work on me - She has done it with a mind grateful, and full of love to me.
The work was good, also, as it was preparative for his death, Matthew 26:12.
