The bronze mite, also known as a Lepton (meaning small), was first minted by Alexander Jannaeus, King of Judaea (103-76 BC), and was still in circulation at the time of Jesus. The Lesson of the widow’s mite was presented in the Synoptic Gospels (Mark 12:41-44, Luke 21:1-4), in which Jesus taught at the Temple in Jerusalem. The Gospel of Mark specifies that two mites (Greek lepta) are together worth a quadrans, the smallest Roman coin. A lepton was the smallest and least valuable coin in circulation in Judea, worth about six minutes of an average daily wage.

We are spending far more on securing Israel and Ukraine than our own border. The bill will provide $13.6 billion in funding to secure the US-Mexico border, which is nothing compared to […]
