Mark 12:40 in Context — Mark 12
38 E dizia-lhes em seu ensino: Cuidado com os escribas, que gostam de andar com roupas compridas, das saudações nas praças,
39 das primeiras cadeiras nas sinagogas, e dos primeiros assentos nas ceias.
40 que devoram as casas das viúvas, com pretexto de longas orações. Esses receberão mais grave condenação.
41 Quando Jesus estava sentado de frente à arca do tesouro, observava como a multidão lançava dinheiro na arca do tesouro; e muitos ricos lançavam muito.
42 E uma pobre viúva veio, e lançou duas pequenas moedas, de pouco valor.
