Mark 12:38-44 is about Jesus warning his disciples against hypocritical religious leaders (scribes) who seek honor and exploit the poor, contrasting them with a poor widow who gives her last two small coins, representing true, sacrificial devotion to God, showing that her "all in" giving is more significant than the large sums given by the rich. It contrasts outward show with inner devotion, highlighting selfless generosity versus self-serving piety.
