For you have the poor with you always, and whenever you will you may do them good: but me you have not always.
All Commentaries on Mark 14:7 Go To Mark 14
George Leo Haydock
AD 1849
Christ here answers the apostles, by informing them that he should not always be with them, but would shortly leave them, as to his corporal presence, though he spiritually will remain with them, and their successors, to the end of time. (Matthew xxviii.)
Behold I am He will not always be with them, so as to want their services. (Ven. Bede)
