I enjoyed reading your book on Mary, and the fifth way rings true for me. However, I would like to go one step further with what Mary did at the anointing. In the anointing at Bethany, Jesus is the perfect human, fully aware of his impending death, and Mary is the perfect human, fully aware of her beloveds impending death.
