Charles Ellicott Commentary Mark 14:4

"But there were some that had indignation among themselves, [saying], To what purpose hath this waste of the ointment been made?" — Mark 14:4 (ASV)

There were some that had indignation.—Note St. Mark’s limitation of the murmurers to “some,” as an intermediate stage between St. Matthew’s “the disciples” and St. John’s naming “Judas.”
