Luke 21:4 in context

The verses around it, from Luke 21.

1 Then Jesus looked up and saw the rich putting their gifts into the treasury,

2 and He saw a poor widow put in two small copper coins.

3 “Truly I tell you,” He said, “this poor widow has put in more than all the others.

4 For they all contributed out of their surplus, but she out of her poverty has put in all she had to live on.”

5 As some of the disciples were remarking how the temple was adorned with beautiful stones and consecrated gifts, Jesus said,

6 “As for what you see here, the time will come when not one stone will be left on another; every one will be thrown down.”

7 “Teacher,” they asked, “when will these things happen? And what will be the sign that they are about to take place?”

8 Jesus answered, “See to it that you are not deceived. For many will come in My name, claiming, ‘I am He,’ and, ‘The time is near.’ Do not follow them.
