Mark 14:7

For ye have the poor with you always ,.... See Gill on Matthew 26:11 ;

and whensoever ye will ye may do them good ; by feeding them when hungry, clothing them when naked, and supplying them with the necessaries of life:

but me ye have not always ; meaning, with respect to his bodily presence, which, in a short time, would be removed from them, and they would have no opportunity of showing him any such outward respect personally; See Gill on Matthew 26:11 .
