Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: While there is no direct Greek equivalent for "hotsen," the concept of wealth and treasure is often expressed in the New Testament with words like "πλοῦτος" (ploutos - G4149) meaning wealth or riches, and "θησαυρός" (thesauros - G2344) meaning treasure.

Usage: The Hebrew word "hotsen" is used to denote abundance or wealth, often in the context of material riches or treasures. It conveys the idea of something that is firm, secure, and substantial, reflecting the stability and security that wealth can provide.

Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Israelite society, wealth was often seen as a sign of God's blessing and favor. Material abundance was associated with prosperity and security, and it played a significant role in the social and economic structures of the time. Wealth was not only a means of personal security but also a way to support the community and fulfill religious obligations, such as offerings and almsgiving.
