They will receive a very severe condemnation."<br />He sat down opposite the treasury and observed how the crowd put money into the treasury. Many rich people put in large sums.<br />A poor widow also came and put in two small coins worth a few cents.<br />Calling his disciples to himself, he said to them, "Amen, I say to you, this poor widow put in more than all the other contributors to the treasury.<br />For they have all contributed from their surplus wealth, but she, from her poverty, has contributed all she had, her whole livelihood."Scott Windsorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01961374547503296840noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3866611.post-69582014781802306292021-11-07T00:47:50.992-07:002021-11-07T00:47:50.992-07:00What does this passage mean to you?
