The concept of savour is deeply embedded in the sacrificial system of the Old Testament and extends into the New Testament as a metaphor for the Christian life and witness. Old Testament Usage In the Old Testament, the Hebrew word often translated as "savour" is "reach," which denotes a smell or aroma. This term is frequently associated with sacrifices offered to God. For example, in <a href="/genesis/8-21.htm">Genesis 8:21</a> , after Noah's sacrifice following the flood, it is written, "When the LORD smelled the pleasing aroma, He said in His heart, 'Never again will I curse the ground because of man, even though every inclination of his heart is evil from his youth. And never again will I destroy all living creatures, as I have done.'" Here, the "pleasing aroma" signifies God's acceptance of Noah's offering. The Levitical laws also emphasize the importance of a "pleasing aroma" in sacrifices. <a href="/leviticus/1-9.htm">Leviticus 1:9</a> states, "The entrails and legs he shall wash with water, and the priest shall burn all of it on the altar as a burnt offering, an offering made by fire, a pleasing aroma to the LORD." The repetition of this phrase throughout Leviticus underscores the idea that sacrifices, when offered in obedience and faith, are acceptable and pleasing to God. New Testament Usage In the New Testament, the concept of savour is expanded to describe the life and witness of believers. The Greek word "osme" is used to convey this idea. In <a href="/2_corinthians/2-14.htm">2 Corinthians 2:14-15</a> , Paul writes, "But thanks be to God, who always leads us triumphantly as captives in Christ and through us spreads everywhere the fragrance of the knowledge of Him. For we are to God the sweet aroma of Christ among those who are being saved and those who are perishing." This passage illustrates that Christians, through their lives and testimony, are to be a "sweet aroma" to God, reflecting the character and knowledge of Christ. The metaphor of fragrance here suggests that the influence of a believer's life should be evident and impactful, drawing others to the knowledge of God. Spiritual Implications The concept of savour in the Bible carries significant spiritual implications. It suggests that just as a physical aroma can be pleasing or displeasing, so can the spiritual aroma of one's life. In <a href="/ephesians/5-2.htm">Ephesians 5:2</a> , believers are exhorted to "walk in love, just as Christ loved us and gave Himself up for us as a fragrant sacrificial offering to God." This indicates that a life characterized by love and sacrifice is pleasing to God, much like the offerings of old. Furthermore, Jesus uses the metaphor of salt to describe the savour of a believer's life in <a href="/matthew/5-13.htm">Matthew 5:13</a> : "You are the salt of the earth. But if the salt loses its savor, with what will it be made salty again? It is no longer good for anything, except to be thrown out and trampled by men." Here, savour represents the preserving and purifying influence Christians are to have in the world. Losing this savour implies a loss of effectiveness and purpose in one's spiritual life. Conclusion The biblical concept of savour encompasses both the literal and metaphorical, serving as a powerful symbol of acceptance, obedience, and influence. Whether through the sacrificial offerings of the Old Testament or the lives of believers in the New Testament, savour represents the quality of being pleasing to God and impactful in the world.<a name="grk" id="grk"></a><div class="vheading2">Greek</div><a href="/greek/3744.htm">3744. osme -- a smell</a> ... a smell, aroma, fragrance.
