The verses around it, from Matthew 16.
1 Then the Pharisees and Sadducees came and tested Jesus by asking Him to show them a sign from heaven.
2 But He replied, “When evening comes, you say, ‘The weather will be fair, for the sky is red,’
3 and in the morning, ‘Today it will be stormy, for the sky is red and overcast.’ You know how to interpret the appearance of the sky, but not the signs of the times.

5 When they crossed to the other side, the disciples forgot to take bread.
6 “Watch out!” Jesus told them. “Beware of the leaven of the Pharisees and Sadducees.”
