Mark 12:41-44; Luke 21:1-4
On a very busy and very trying day for the Lord Jesus - Tuesday of the Passion Week, we have the record of an encounter that must have been like a refreshing oasis in the midst of a spiritually dry desert for Him. A true worshipper entered the scene (He was in the Temple Court known as "The Court of the Women" in which was located the Temple treasury "alms boxes). This person was a widow and her genuine love, humility, and devotion to the things of God served as a striking contrast to the hypocrisy and pride and false devotion of Israel's false shepherds, who had become a tremendous source of anguish to the Lord's heart.
This widow has become one of the best known female characters in the New Testament. Actually, she represents all the unnamed and unnoticed saints of God who give sacrificially of both their time and finances for His name's sake. She represents those who, because they truly love the Lord, obey Him by serving and giving unselfishly.
