Widow

Mark 12:
38And in his teaching he said, "Beware of the scribes, who like to go about in long robes, and to have salutations in the market places  39and the best seats in the synagogues and the places of honor at feasts,  40who devour widows' houses and for a pretense make long prayers. They will receive the greater condemnation."  41And he sat down opposite the treasury, and watched the multitude putting money into the treasury. Many rich people put in large sums.  42And a poor widow came, and put in two copper coins, which make a penny.  43And he called his disciples to him, and said to them, "Truly, I say to you, this poor widow has put in more than all those who are contributing to the treasury.  44For they all contributed out of their abundance; but she out of her poverty has put in everything she had, her whole living."
