ISB ~ Luke 7 v36
One of the Pharisees:Three times Jesus dines with a Pharisee in Luke (11:37; 14:1).
sat at table:Jews of that time customarily reclined on low couches near the floor to eat festal and ritual meals. They leaned upon a cushion on their left side and ate with their right hand. This explains how the woman stood at Jesus’ feet while also standing behind him (7:38).
