Bible Q and A on refuge, Asenath, widow's mite origin
David fled Saul and took refuge among the Philistines. Asenath was Joseph's wife in Egypt. The widow's mite error is misreading it as a large donation when it was a small offering given from poverty. The phrase tarrying by the stuff comes from the widow's simple faith in the Bible. Christ said she hath done what she could in recognizing her humble gift and devotion.
