Exegesis
The relative clause ho estin kodrantes {ὅ ἐστιν κοδράντης | hó éstin kodrántēs} uses a neuter singular relative pronoun with a predicate nominative to express equivalence, clarifying the monetary value of the coins. In translation, the participle elthousa is rendered as a simple past “came” to maintain natural narrative flow, while the stacked modifiers of the widow are preserved in order and sense. The relative clause is expressed as “which amount to” or “which together equal,” making the implied valuation explicit in contemporary English while retaining the Greek equivalence structure.
