The act of buying is not only a practical aspect of daily life but also carries spiritual and moral implications. Old Testament Context In the Old Testament, buying and selling were common practices in the ancient Near Eastern economy. The Hebrew word for buy, "קָנָה" (qanah), appears in various contexts. For instance, in <a href="/genesis/23-16.htm">Genesis 23:16</a>, Abraham buys a field from Ephron the Hittite to bury his wife Sarah: "Abraham agreed to Ephron’s terms and weighed out for him the price he had named in the hearing of the Hittites: four hundred shekels of silver, according to the standard current among the merchants" . This transaction highlights the importance of land ownership and the formal agreements that were part of such dealings. The Mosaic Law provided guidelines for buying and selling, emphasizing fairness and justice. <a href="/leviticus/25-14.htm">Leviticus 25:14</a> instructs, "If you make a sale to your neighbor or buy from him, you must not take advantage of one another" . This reflects the ethical standards expected in economic transactions, ensuring that neither party exploits the other. New Testament Context In the New Testament, the Greek word "ἀγοράζω" (agorazo) is used for buying. The act of buying is often used metaphorically to convey spiritual truths. In <a href="/matthew/13-44.htm">Matthew 13:44-46</a>, Jesus shares the parables of the hidden treasure and the pearl of great value, illustrating the kingdom of heaven: "The kingdom of heaven is like treasure hidden in a field. When a man found it, he hid it again, and in his joy, he went and sold all he had and bought that field" . Here, buying signifies the willingness to give up everything for the sake of gaining the kingdom of God. The concept of redemption is also tied to the idea of buying. In <a href="/1_corinthians/6-20.htm">1 Corinthians 6:20</a>, Paul reminds believers, "You were bought at a price. Therefore glorify God with your body" . This underscores the sacrificial act of Christ, who "purchased" believers with His blood, highlighting the profound spiritual transaction that secures salvation. Moral and Spiritual Implications The Bible presents buying as an activity that requires integrity and fairness. <a href="/proverbs/20-14.htm">Proverbs 20:14</a> warns against deceit in transactions: "It is bad, it is bad! says the buyer, but when he goes away, then he boasts" . This verse cautions against dishonest practices and the importance of honesty in economic dealings. Moreover, the Bible encourages believers to prioritize spiritual wealth over material possessions. In <a href="/revelation/3-18.htm">Revelation 3:18</a>, the risen Christ advises the church in Laodicea, "I counsel you to buy from Me gold refined by fire so that you may become rich; white garments so that you may be clothed and your shameful nakedness not exposed; and salve to anoint your eyes so that you may see" . This passage calls for the pursuit of spiritual riches that come from a relationship with Christ. In summary, the biblical perspective on buying encompasses both practical and spiritual dimensions, urging believers to conduct transactions with integrity and to seek the eternal value found in Christ.<a name="web" id="web"></a><div class="vheading2">Webster's Revised Unabridged Dictionary</div>1.
