Best Answer

She was referred to as a "woman" which was a "sinner". Gauging by the reaction of the Pharisees, she was more than likely a harlot or prostitute. The focus should not be on her identity but her actions with regard to our Lord. Weeping, kissing his feet, bathing them with costly perfume, and wiping away the falling tears with her hair-how she puts respectable people to shame bowing low at the feet of her Lord in abject humility and devoted adoration.
