The concept of rust is used metaphorically in Scripture to illustrate the transient nature of material wealth and the importance of storing up spiritual treasures.<br><br><b>Biblical References:</b><br><br>1. <b><a href="/matthew/6-19.htm">Matthew 6:19-20</a> :</b> "Do not store up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moth and rust destroy, and where thieves break in and steal. But store up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where moth and rust do not destroy, and where thieves do not break in and steal." In this passage, Jesus teaches about the futility of accumulating earthly wealth, which is subject to decay and theft. Rust here represents the inevitable deterioration of material possessions, urging believers to focus on eternal, heavenly treasures that are immune to such decay.<br><br>2. <b><a href="/james/5.htm">James 5:1-3</a> :</b> "Come now, you who are rich, weep and wail over the misery to come upon you. Your riches have rotted and your garments are moth-eaten. Your gold and silver are corroded. Their corrosion will testify against you and consume your flesh like fire. You have hoarded treasure in the last days." James warns the wealthy about the dangers of hoarding riches. The corrosion of gold and silver, akin to rust, serves as a metaphor for the moral and spiritual decay that accompanies the selfish accumulation of wealth. This passage highlights the temporal nature of earthly riches and the judgment that awaits those who prioritize them over spiritual matters.<br><br><b>Symbolism and Interpretation:</b><br><br>In biblical symbolism, rust is often associated with the broader theme of corruption and the fleeting nature of worldly possessions. It serves as a reminder of the impermanence of life and the futility of placing one's trust in material wealth. The imagery of rust destroying treasures underscores the biblical teaching that true security and value lie in spiritual, not material, pursuits.<br><br>The use of rust as a metaphor also reflects the biblical worldview that prioritizes spiritual integrity and eternal values over temporal gains. It challenges believers to examine their priorities and to invest in what is lasting and incorruptible—namely, their relationship with God and the pursuit of righteousness.<br><br><b>Theological Implications:</b><br><br>From a theological perspective, the concept of rust invites reflection on the nature of true wealth and security. It calls believers to a life of stewardship, where material resources are used for God's glory and the advancement of His kingdom rather than personal gain. The metaphor of rust serves as a caution against the idolatry of wealth and a reminder of the ultimate accountability before God.<br><br>In summary, rust in the Bible is a powerful symbol of decay and the transient nature of earthly treasures. It serves as a call to focus on eternal values and to live a life that reflects the priorities of the Kingdom of God.<a name="web" id="web"></a><div class="vheading2">Webster's Revised Unabridged Dictionary</div>1.

Chel'ah is translated "rust" in <a href="/ezekiel/24-11.htm">Ezekiel 24:11, 12</a>. This rendering is probably based on 24:11. Copper caldrons are still used in Bible lands. Such vessels must be constantly watched when on the fire to guard against the possibility of their becoming dry. If this should happen the contents, whatever they may be, and the vessel itself will be injured. The copper of the caldron oxidizes and scales off in black or brownish scales, or rust. ios, was used in Greek to denote the corroding of metals. In <a href="/james/5-3.htm">James 5:3</a> occurs, "Your gold and your silver are rusted; and their rust.... shall eat your flesh as fire." The writers must have had in mind the actions of chemicals upon these metals which formed some such compound as the caustic silver nitrate.<br><br>Brosis, literally, "eating," which occurs in <a href="/matthew/6-19.htm">Matthew 6:19, 20</a>, may refer to the diseases which attack such vegetation as wheat, grapes, cucumbers, etc. In no country is the saying "where moth and rust consume" (<a href="/matthew/6-19.htm">Matthew 6:19</a>) more true than in Syria. Any metal subject to corrosion seems to rust faster in that country than anywhere else. There are also many rusting fungi which the people have not learned to destroy and which do much damage to the crops.<br><br>See also <a href="../s/scum.htm">SCUM</a>.<br><br>James A.
