{Above three hundred pence} (epan(9320)d(886e)ari(936e) triakosi(936e)).
Matthew has "for much" while  Joh 12:5  has "for three hundred
pence." The use of "far above" may be a detail from Peter's
memory of Judas' objection whose name in this connection is
preserved in  Joh 12:4 . {And they murmured against her} (kai
enebrim(936e)to aut(8869)). Imperfect tense of this striking word used
of the snorting of horses and seen already in  Mr 1:43  11:38 .
It occurs in the LXX in the sense of anger as here ( Da 11:30 ).
Judas made the complaint against Mary of Bethany, but all the
apostles joined in the chorus of criticism of the wasteful
extravagance.
