A.T. Robertson Commentary Luke 12:59

"I say unto thee, Thou shalt by no means come out thence, till thou have paid the very last mite." — Luke 12:59 (ASV)

Till thou have paid (εως αποδωις). Second aorist active subjunctive of αποδιδωμ, to pay back in full.

The last mite (το εσχατον λεπτον). From λεπω, to peel off the bark. Very small brass coin, one-eighth of an ounce. In the N.T. only here and Lu 21:2; Mr 12:42 (the poor widow's mite) which see.
