1 As Jesus was observing the rich casting their offerings into the treasury, 2 he saw a poor widow throwing in the value of a farthing. 3 and he said, I declare unto you, that this poor widow has thrown in more than they all. 4 for they have offer'd only part of their superfluous wealth; but she has given all that was then left for her subsistence. 5 Some having said of the temple, that the stone-work was fine, and the furniture magnificent: 6 the time is coming, said he, when these buildings, which you now view, shall be all thrown down and lost in ruins.
