This role involved the collection, safeguarding, and distribution of funds and valuables.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>The role of a treasurer was crucial in ancient Near Eastern societies, including Israel, especially during the Persian period when the Jewish community was under foreign rule. The treasurer would have been responsible for ensuring that the financial affairs of the temple or the royal court were conducted with integrity and efficiency. This position required a high level of trust and accountability, as the treasurer managed resources that were vital for religious and governmental functions.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>(Aramaic) corresponding to <a href="/hebrew/1489.htm">gizbar</a><br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>treasurer<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>treasurers (1).<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">Brown-Driver-Briggs</div> [<font class="hebrew2">גִּזְבָּר</font>] <font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>noun masculine</b></font> <font size="+1"><b>treasurer</b></font> (Persian loan-word (Scheft<sup>81</sup>);
