SCRIPTURE

"for all these did of their superfluity cast in unto the gifts; but she of her want did cast in all the living that she had." — Luke 21:4 (ASV)

For all these have . . . cast.—Better, all these cast . . ., and so in the next clause.

Unto the offerings of God.—The better manuscripts omit the last two words. “Offerings,” literally, gifts.
