Concise Bible Dictionary
:
This is literally a
table
, and mostly so translated, and which could be used for any purpose (
Luke 19:23
23
Wherefore then gavest not thou my money into the bank, that at my coming I might have required mine own with usury? (Luke 19:23)
). In
Matthew 25:27
27
Thou oughtest therefore to have put my money to the exchangers, and then at my coming I should have received mine own with usury. (Matthew 25:27)
a kindred word is translated “exchangers”; both passages imply that there were in those days, as now, those who received and lent
money
on interest.
