Silver

From: A Dictionary of Biblical Words and Phrases

By: Alfred Taylor Schofield

is typical of redemption, being the redemption money of the Israelites. The words of the Lord, the tongue of the just, saints in affliction, are all compared to silver (Psa. 12:6⁶The words of the Lord are pure words: as silver tried in a furnace of earth, purified seven times. (Psalm 12:6); Prov. 10:20²⁰The tongue of the just is as choice silver: the heart of the wicked is little worth. (Proverbs 10:20); Isa. 1:22²²Thy silver is become dross, thy wine mixed with water: (Isaiah 1:22); Psa. 66:10¹⁰For thou, O God, hast proved us: thou hast tried us, as silver is tried. (Psalm 66:10)).
