For example, "gave his widow's mite to the cause". The term comes from the Bible story in Mark 12:42 of a poor widow who gives two mites, or leptons, to the Temple treasury. A lepton was a Jewish coin that was the smallest used during New Testament times, worth about 1/8 of a cent today. The widow's gift was a proportionally much larger sacrifice than the gifts of the rich, and Jesus tells his disciples that she has given more than all the others.
