Luke 21:5

3 “Truly I tell you,” He said, “this poor widow has put in more than all the others.

4 For they all contributed out of their surplus, but she out of her poverty has put in all she had to live on.”

As some of the disciples were remarking how the temple was adorned with beautiful stones and consecrated gifts, Jesus said,

6 “As for what you see here, the time will come when not one stone will be left on another; every one will be thrown down.”

7 “Teacher,” they asked, “when will these things happen? And what will be the sign that they are about to take place?”
