While the rich gave large sums of money, the widow gave all she had.
Jesus was
Jesus commended a poor widow at the treasury for her humble offering. In Mark 12:41-44, He observed that while many wealthy individuals donated large sums, the widow contributed only two small coins, which was all she had. Jesus highlighted that her sacrifice was greater because she gave from her poverty, demonstrating true generosity and faith.
The Persistent Widow Luke 18: 1-8.

The widow in Zarephath
Elisha- raised the widow's son from the dead as Jesus did for Lazarus.
Because the mother was a widow.
Probably you are thinking of the son of the widow of Nain, whom Jesus brought back to life just as he was on the way to being buried. This is recorded in Luke 7:11-16. His name is not recorded in the account, nor anything else told about him, not even his age.
Jesus raised several people from the dead, including Lazarus, the son of a widow in Nain, and Jairus' daughter.
The Temple Treasury in Jerusalem during the time of Jesus was a crucial location for financial contributions to the Temple, where worshippers donated money for various religious purposes, including sacrifices and maintenance. It consisted of 13 trumpet-shaped collection boxes, each designated for different offerings. Jesus notably observed people giving their donations there, highlighting the contrast between the wealthy's large gifts and the humble, yet significant, offering of a poor widow, which he praised as true generosity. This event underscores themes of sincerity and the spirit of giving in the teachings of Jesus.
Jesus raised Jairus' daughter (Matt. 9:23, Mark 5:22, Luke 8:41), Jesus raised a widow's son (Luke 7:11), and Lazarus (John 11:38).
The name of the widow's son is not given. The account can be found at Luke 7:11-17.
