Verse in context — Mark 12
‹Which devour widows' houses, and for a pretence make long prayers: these shall receive greater damnation.›
And Jesus sat over against the treasury, and beheld how the people cast money into the treasury: and many that were rich cast in much.
And there came a certain poor widow, and she threw in two mites, which make a farthing.
And he called [unto him] his disciples, and saith unto them, ‹Verily I say unto you, That this poor widow hath cast more in, than all they which have cast into the treasury:›
‹For all› [they] ‹did cast in of their abundance; but she of her want did cast in all that she had,› [even] ‹all her living.›
