Matthew 10:29 Context
27What I tell you in darkenesse, that speake yee in light: and what yee heare in the eare, that preach yee vpon the house tops. 28And feare not them which kill the body, but are not able to kill the soule: but rather feare him which is able to destroy both soule and body in hell. 29Are not two Sparrowes solde for a farthing? And one of them shall not fall on the ground without your Father. 30But the very haires of your head are all numbred. 31Feare yee not therefore, ye are of more value then many Sparrowes.

Wesley's Notes for Matthew 10:29
10:29-30 The particular providence of God is another reason for your not fearing man. For this extends to the very smallest things. And if he has such care over the most inconsiderable creatures, how much more will he take care of you, (provided you confess him before men, before powerful enemies of the truth,) and that not only in this life, but in the other also? #Luke 12:7|.

Mt 10:29 Two sparrows. Among the smallest and least valuable birds, yet under the Divine care. So cheap as to be offered in pairs for an insignificant coin, but God notes the fall of one.
