This sermon opened my eyes to a richer and deeper meaning to Jesus parable of the lost coins. It turns out that in the 1st century women would wear a necklace of 10 silver coins around their neck if they were engaged to be married! So the lost coin was not just any lost coin. This was a special silver coin (1 of 10). This coin was one that represented the love of her husband or betrothed.
