It is not commonly used in the modern sense of being inquisitive or eager to learn. Instead, it is more aligned with craftsmanship and artistry, particularly in the context of the construction of sacred objects and garments.<br><br><b>Biblical Usage:</b><br><br>1. <b>Curious Workmanship:</b><br> The term "curious" is frequently associated with the detailed and artistic work involved in the creation of the Tabernacle and the garments of the priests. In <a href="/exodus/28-8.htm">Exodus 28:8</a>, the Bible describes the "curious girdle" of the ephod, which was a part of the high priest's attire: "The skillfully woven waistband of the ephod must be of one piece with the ephod, of the same workmanship, with gold, with blue, purple, and scarlet yarn, and with finely spun linen." . This indicates a high level of craftsmanship and attention to detail, reflecting the sacred nature of the priestly garments.<br><br>2. <b>Artistry in Sacred Objects:</b><br> The construction of the Tabernacle and its furnishings involved "curious" or skillful work. <a href="/exodus/35-35.htm">Exodus 35:35</a> speaks of Bezalel and Oholiab, who were filled with the Spirit of God to perform all kinds of artistic work: "He has filled them with skill to do all kinds of work as engravers, designers, embroiderers in blue, purple, and scarlet yarn, and fine linen, and as weavers—designers of every work and artistic craftsmen." . This highlights the divine inspiration and skill required to create objects for worship.<br><br>3. <b>Symbolism and Meaning:</b><br> The use of "curious" in describing the work on sacred objects and garments underscores the importance of beauty and precision in worship. The intricate designs and careful craftsmanship symbolize the order and beauty of God's creation and His desire for worship to be conducted with reverence and excellence.<br><br>4. <b>Moral and Spiritual Implications:</b><br> While the term "curious" in the Bible primarily refers to craftsmanship, it can also imply a deeper spiritual significance. The detailed work on the Tabernacle and priestly garments serves as a reminder of the holiness and majesty of God. It calls believers to approach God with awe and respect, recognizing the care and precision with which He has designed His creation and His plan for redemption.<br><br>In summary, the biblical use of "curious" emphasizes the importance of skillful and artistic work in the service of God, reflecting His glory and the sacredness of worship. It serves as a reminder of the beauty and order inherent in God's creation and the reverence due to Him in all aspects of life.<a name="eas" id="eas"></a><div class="vheading2">Easton's Bible Dictionary</div>Curious arts<p>(<a href="/acts/19-19.htm">Acts 19:19</a>), magical arts; jugglery practised by the Ephesian conjurers.
