Marco 12:44

Listen to Marco 12:44
44 poiché tutti han gettato del superfluo; ma costei, del suo necessario, vi ha gettato tutto ciò che possedeva, tutto quanto avea per vivere.

Marco 12:44 Meaning and Commentary

Mark 12:44

For all they did cast in of their abundance
Or "superabundance", as the Arabic version renders it; or "superfluity", as the Ethiopic: they abounded in the things of the world, of which they gave only a part; and though they might give much, yet they could easily spare it, and had enough remaining:

but she, of her want;
or "penury", as in ( Luke 21:4 ) ; see ( 2 Corinthians 8:2 ) ;

did cast in all that she had, even all her living;
her whole substance, all that she had in the world; what was to have bought her food, for that day; she left herself nothing, but gave away all, and trusted to providence for immediate supply.

Marco 12:44 In-Context

42 E venuta una povera vedova, vi gettò due spiccioli che fanno un quarto di soldo.
43 E Gesù, chiamati a se i suoi discepoli, disse loro: in verità io vi dico che questa povera vedova ha gettato nella cassa delle offerte più di tutti gli altri;
44 poiché tutti han gettato del superfluo; ma costei, del suo necessario, vi ha gettato tutto ciò che possedeva, tutto quanto avea per vivere.
