# General Information:

Jesus continues to explain to the crowd that it is important to count the cost of being a disciple.

# For which of you who desires to build a tower does not first sit down and count the cost to calculate if he has what he needs to complete it?

"If a person wanted to build a tower, he would first sit down and determine if he had enough money to complete it."

# tower

This may have been a watchtower. Alternate translation: "a tall building" or "a high lookout platform"
