Luke 21:1 Meaning and Commentary

Luke 21:1

And he looked up
As Christ sat over against the treasury, looking upon the ground, he lift up his eyes; for the treasury was not in an high place, or above Christ, who was right against it. The Syriac, Arabic, and Persic versions leave out this clause. And saw the rich men casting their gifts into the treasury;
(See Gill on Mark 12:41).
