Oct 15, 2018 at 18:51 comment added Ruminator A prophetic symbol?
Oct 15, 2018 at 18:49 comment added Lucian I said it was a sign or symbol of that which was soon to come. See Acts 21:11, for instance.
Oct 15, 2018 at 18:29 comment added Ruminator The "soon-to-be death and embalming". Did Jews preemptively perform rituals for the dead?
Oct 15, 2018 at 18:22 comment added Lucian Celebrating what ?
Oct 15, 2018 at 18:18 comment added Ruminator @Lucian Yes, to you (doing my best Devito). I mean, was it common to start celebrating so soon (before they are dead)?
Oct 15, 2018 at 18:12 comment added Lucian (I don't want to sound like De Niro, but was your last comment addressed at me ? If so, what did it mean ?)
Oct 15, 2018 at 17:43 comment added Ruminator Do we know from history of any such "allow us to show you the door" ceremonies?!
Oct 15, 2018 at 16:30 comment added Lucian It was a sign or symbol of His soon-to-follow death-and-embalming.
Oct 15, 2018 at 16:18 comment added Ruminator @Lucian While linked to his death it was not an embalming since he hadn't finished his falafal yet.

Added verse in question to the question
Oct 15, 2018 at 13:33 comment added Lucian No. The anointing of a king or priest or prophet (on one hand), and the anointing (or embalming) of the dead, are two different things. Christ explicitly links it with the latter (John 12:7). See also John 19:39.
