It is used in the New Testament to describe the area where people would deposit their offerings.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In the Second Temple period, the treasury was an important part of the Temple complex in Jerusalem. It was a designated area where worshippers could contribute financially to the maintenance of the Temple and its services. The treasury was not only a place for collecting money but also a symbol of the people's devotion and support for the religious institution. The offerings were used for various purposes, including the upkeep of the Temple, support for the priests, and aid for the poor.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>from <a href="/greek/1047.htm">gaza</a> and <a href="/greek/5438.htm">phulaké</a><br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>treasury<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>treasury (5).<p><div align="center"><span class="smalltext"><iframe width="100%" height="85" scrolling=no src="/nasec.htm" frameborder=0 cellpadding=0></iframe></span></div><div class="vheading2">Thayer's Greek Lexicon</div><span class="maintitle">STRONGS NT 1049: γαζοφυλάκιον</span><br><br><span class="arttitle"><span class="grktitle">γαζοφυλάκιον</span></span>, <span class="greek2">γαζοφυλακίου</span>, <span class="greek2">τό</span> (from <span class="greek2">γάζα</span>, which see, and <span class="greek2">φυλακή</span>; hence, equivalent to <span class="greek2">θησαυροφυλακιον</span>, <span class="abbreviation">Hesychius</span>), a repository of treasure, especially of public treasure, a treasury: <a href="/interlinear/esther/3-9.htm">Esther 3:9</a>; 1 Esdr. 8:18, 44; 1 Macc. 3:28.
