Luke 12:6

Aren’t five sparrows sold for two pennies? ¹  Yet not one of them is forgotten before God.

Ps 50:10,11; Ps 113:5,6; Ps 145:15,16; Ps 147:9; Mt 10:29; Lu 12:24,27

¹ sn The pennies refer to the assarion, a small Roman copper coin. One of them was worth one sixteenth of a denarius or less than a half hour’s average wage. Sparrows were the cheapest thing sold in the market. God knows about even the most financially insignificant things; see Isa 49:15.
