Usage: The term χρυσίον is used in the New Testament to denote gold, especially in contexts involving wealth, adornment, or offerings. It appears in various passages to highlight the value and allure of gold, often in contrast to spiritual riches or virtues. Context: The Greek term χρυσίον is a diminutive form of χρυσός, indicating small pieces or items made of gold. In the New Testament, χρυσίον is used to describe gold in various contexts, often emphasizing its material value and the human tendency to covet wealth. For instance, in 1 Peter 1:18, the apostle Peter contrasts the perishable nature of gold with the imperishable redemption through Christ: "For you know that it was not with perishable things such as silver or gold that you were redeemed from the empty way of life handed down to you from your ancestors."
