      <title>Spikenard of Mary, Anointing oil - 7.5ml</title>
      <link>http://www.holylandmarket.com/detail.asp?id=2554</link>
      <description>It was customary to anoint the body of the deceased in Jewish culture in Palestine at the time of Christ. Ointments such as spikenard were used. The body was always anointed except in the cases of criminals. Since Jesus was to die in a execution as a criminal he accepted the anointing with spikenard before his death. 

We know Jesus was anointed with spikenard by Mary, the sister of Lazarus and Martha who lived together in Bethany. John 11:1 and John 12:3. &lt;br&gt;&lt;center&gt;&lt;a&gt;&lt;img src="p/spikenardplant.jpg" border=0  alt='Spikenard plant' &gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/center&gt;</description>
