Exegesis
This is followed by two parallel prepositional phrases, en Bethania {ἐν Βηθανίᾳ | en Bē-tha-níā} and en te oikia {ἐν τῇ οἰκίᾳ | en tē oi-kíā}, which first give the village location and then the more specific setting in the house of Simon.
In context — Mark 14:3
And while He was in Bethany in the house of Simon the leper, as He was reclining at the table, a woman came having an alabaster flask of ointment of pure nard, very costly ; after breaking the alabaster flask, she poured it on His head.
