This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
A certain (μία)
Not a good translation. Lit., one as distinguished from the many rich. Better, simply the indefinite article, as Rev.
Poor (πτωχὴ)
See on Mat 5:3.
Mites (λεπτὰ)
From λεπτός, peeled, husked; and thence thin or fine. Therefore of a very small or thin coin.
Farthing (κοδράντης)
A Latin word, quadrans, or a quarter of a Roman as; quadrans meaning a fourth, as farthing is fourthing.
