People's New Testament

12:43 Cast more in than all. Note the word more --proportionately, to-wit, to her means, and thus more in the estimation of God, who measures quantity by quality.

Wesley's Notes

12:43 I say to you, that this poor widow hath cast in more than they all - See what judgement is cast on the most specious, outward actions by the Judge of all! And how acceptable to him is the smallest, which springs from self - denying love!

Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary

12:41-44 Let us not forget that Jesus still sees the treasury. He knows how much, and from what motives, men give to his cause. He looks at the heart, and what our views are, in giving alms; and whether we do it as unto the Lord, or only to be seen of men. It is so rare to find any who would not blame this widow, that we cannot expect to find many who will do like to her; and yet our Saviour commends her, therefore we are sure that she did well and wisely. The feeble efforts of the poor to honour their Saviour, will be commended in that day, when the splendid actions of unbelievers will be exposed to contempt.


Mark 12:42 A poor widow came and put in two small copper coins, which amount to a cent.
Mark 12:44 for they all put in out of their surplus, but she, out of her poverty, put in all she owned, all she had to live on." (NASB ©1995)
