Matthew 26:10 Douay-Rheims

And Jesus knowing it, said to them: Why do you trouble this woman? for she hath wrought a good work upon me.

Remigius of Auxerre

c. A.D. 841–908 Medieval

He clearly shews that the Apostles had uttered something harsh against her, when He says, Why trouble ye the woman? And beautifully He adds, She hath wrought a good work in me; as much as to say, It is not a waste of ointment, as ye say, but a good work, that is, a service of piety and devotion.
