4. And they planned to arrest Yeshoshua by a trap and kill him.
5. But they were saying, Not during the Chag (Feast), lest a riot break out among the am haaretz. [T.N. A careful reading of this book shows that the Moshiach pointed to the One in Ps 110:1, Dan 7:13, and Isa 53 and Ps 118:22 and declared that the same person is being referred to in all these Scriptures: Moshiach Adoneinu.]
6. And, while Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach was in Beit-Anyah in the bais of Shimon the leper,
7. An isha approached him with an alabaster flask of costly perfume, and she poured it out on Moshiach's rosh, as he sat bimesibba (reclining at tish [table]).
8. And having seen this, Moshiach's talmidim were angry, saying, For what is this waste?
9. For it would have been possible to sell this for a generous sum and give to the aniyim (poor ones).
10. Aware of this, Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach said to them, Why are you bringing about difficulty for the isha for the ma'aseh tov (good deed) she does to me.
11. For the aniyim you have with you always, but you do not always have me.
