Exegesis
The saying opens with the neuter relative pronoun ho {ὃ | hó} introducing a relative clause ho eschen epoiēsen {ὃ ἔσχεν ἐποίησεν | hó É-skhen e-poí-ē-sen}, which functions as a summary assessment of the woman’s act: “what she had, she did.” The coordinated aorist indicatives eschen and epoiēsen present her inner resources and outward deed as a single, complete event.
Root and etymology
poieopi–omicron–iota–epsilon–omega
“to do, make”
In context — Mark 14:8
What she had she did; she has anticipated to anoint My body for the burial .
