The term "bag" appears in several contexts throughout the Scriptures, reflecting both literal and metaphorical uses.<br><br><b>Old Testament References</b><br><br>1. <b>Money Bags</b>: In the Old Testament, bags were often associated with the carrying of money. In <a href="/2_kings/12-10.htm">2 Kings 12:10</a>, we read about the priests collecting money in a chest with a hole in its lid, and the money was counted and tied up in bags. This indicates the use of bags for securing and transporting currency.<br><br>2. <b>Provision Bags</b>: Bags were also used for carrying provisions. In <a href="/genesis/42-25.htm">Genesis 42:25</a>, Joseph commanded that his brothers' bags be filled with grain during their visit to Egypt. This highlights the practical use of bags for storing and transporting food supplies.<br><br>3. <b>Symbolic Use</b>: The bag is sometimes used symbolically in the Old Testament. In <a href="/haggai/1-6.htm">Haggai 1:6</a>, the prophet speaks of earning wages only to put them in a "bag with holes," symbolizing futility and loss due to disobedience to God.<br><br><b>New Testament References</b><br><br>1. <b>Money Bags and Discipleship</b>: In the New Testament, Jesus instructs His disciples regarding the use of money bags. In <a href="/luke/10-4.htm">Luke 10:4</a>, He tells the seventy-two disciples, "Do not carry a money bag, a traveler’s bag, or sandals; and do not greet anyone along the road." This instruction emphasizes reliance on God's provision and the urgency of their mission.<br><br>2. <b>Judas Iscariot</b>: The most infamous mention of a bag in the New Testament is related to Judas Iscariot, who was the keeper of the money bag for Jesus and His disciples. In <a href="/john/12-6.htm">John 12:6</a>, it is noted that Judas "was a thief; as keeper of the money bag, he used to help himself to what was put into it." This highlights the theme of betrayal and the misuse of entrusted resources.<br><br>3. <b>Heavenly Treasures</b>: Jesus also uses the concept of a money bag metaphorically to teach about eternal values. In <a href="/luke/12-33.htm">Luke 12:33</a>, He advises, "Sell your possessions and give to the poor. Provide yourselves with purses that will not wear out, an inexhaustible treasure in heaven, where no thief approaches and no moth destroys." Here, the "purse" or "bag" represents the storing of heavenly treasures through acts of charity and righteousness.<br><br><b>Cultural and Historical Context</b><br><br>In the ancient Near East, bags were typically made from animal skins or woven materials. They varied in size and were used by travelers, merchants, and common people alike. The use of bags was essential for daily life, facilitating trade, travel, and the management of household goods.<br><br><b>Theological Implications</b><br><br>The use of bags in Scripture often carries deeper theological implications. They can symbolize the transient nature of earthly wealth and the importance of spiritual priorities. The teachings of Jesus regarding money bags challenge believers to focus on eternal treasures rather than temporary material possessions.<br><br>In summary, the concept of a bag in the Bible serves as a practical tool for daily life and a powerful symbol for spiritual truths, reflecting the broader biblical themes of provision, stewardship, and the pursuit of eternal values.<a name="smi" id="smi"></a><div class="vheading2">Smith's Bible Dictionary</div><span class="encheading">Bag</span><p>is the rendering of several words in the Old and New Testaments. <ol> <li><i>Charitim</i> , the "bags" in which Naaman bound up the two talents of silver for Gehazi.

This "bag" of the shepherd or "haversack" of the traveler was of a size sufficient for one or more days' provisions. It was made of the skin of animals, ordinarily undressed, as most of the other "bags" of ancient times were, and was carried slung across the shoulder. This is the "scrip for the journey" pera mentioned in <a href="/matthew/10-10.htm">Matthew 10:10</a> and its parallel (the King James Version). ("Scrip" is Old English, now obsolete.) A unique word appears in <a href="/1_samuel/17-40.htm">1 Samuel 17:40, 49</a> which had to be explained even to Hebrew readers by the gloss, "the shepherd's bag," but which is likewise rendered "wallet" by the American Standard Revised Version.<br><br>(2) "Bag" translates also a word ballantion which stands for the more finished leather pouch, or satchel which served as a "purse" (see Christ's words, <a href="/luke/10-4.htm">Luke 10:4</a> King James Version: "Carry neither purse, nor scrip," and 12:33 King James Version: "Provide yourselves bags which wax not old"). The word rendered "purse" in <a href="/matthew/10-9.htm">Matthew 10:9</a>: "Get you no gold, nor silver, nor brass in your purses"; <a href="/mark/6-8.htm">Mark 6:8</a>: "No money in their purse," is a different word entirely zone, the true rendering of which is "girdle" (Revised Version, margin). The oriental "girdle," though sometimes of crude leather, or woven camel's hair (see GIRDLE), was often of fine material and elegant workmanship, and was either made hollow so to carry money, or when of silk or cloth, worn in folds, when the money was carried in the folds.<br><br>(3) The small "merchant's bag" often knotted in a handkerchief for carrying the weights, such as is mentioned in <a href="/deuteronomy/25-13.htm">Deuteronomy 25:13</a>: "Thou shalt not have in thy bag divers weights, a great and a small," was another variety. This too was used as "purse," as in the case of the proposed common purse of the wicked mentioned in <a href="/proverbs/1-14.htm">Proverbs 1:14</a>: "We will all have one purse," and sometimes carried in the girdle (compare <a href="/isaiah/46-6.htm">Isaiah 46:6</a>).<br><br>(4) Then there was the "bag" tseror, rendered "bundle" in <a href="/genesis/42-35.htm">Genesis 42:35</a> which was the favorite receptacle for valuables, jewels, as well as money, used figuratively with fine effect in <a href="/1_samuel/25-29.htm">1 Samuel 25:29</a>: "The soul of my lord shall be bound in the bundle of life"-"life's jewel-case" (see <a href="/2_kings/12-10.htm">2 Kings 12:10</a> where the money of the temple was said to be put up "tied up" in bags). This was a "bag" that could be tied with a string: "Behold, every man's bundle of money was in his sack," and with (compare <a href="/proverbs/7-20.htm">Proverbs 7:20</a>) "He hath taken a bag of money with him" (compare <a href="/haggai/1-6.htm">Haggai 1:6</a>: "earneth wages to put it into a bag holes"). A seal was sometimes put on the knot, which occasions the figure of speech used in <a href="/job/14-16.htm">Job 14:16, 17</a>, "Dost thou not watch over my sin? My transgression is sealed up in a bag," i.e. it is securely kept and reckoned against me (compare also <a href="/1_samuel/9-7.htm">1 Samuel 9:7</a>; <a href="/1_samuel/21-5.htm">1 Samuel 21:5</a> where the Hebrew keli, is rendered by "vessels" and stands for receptacles for carrying food, not necessarily bags).<br><br>(5) Another Hebrew word chariT; Arabic charitat, is used, on the one hand, for a "bag" large enough to hold a talent of silver (see <a href="/2_kings/5-23.htm">2 Kings 5:23</a>, "bound two talents of silver in two bags"), and on the other, for a dainty lady's satchel, such as is found in <a href="/isaiah/3-22.htm">Isaiah 3:22</a> (wrongly rendered "crisping pins" in the King James Version). This is the most adequate Hebrew word for a large bag. (6) The "bag" which Judas carried (see <a href="/john/12-6.htm">John 12:6</a> the King James Version, "He was a thief and had the bag"; compare <a href="/john/13-29.htm">John 13:29</a>) was in reality the small "box" (Revised Version, margin) originally used for holding the mouthpieces of wind instruments (Kennedy, in the 1-volume HDB). The Hebrew 'argaz, (found only here) of <a href="/1_samuel/6-8.htm">1 Samuel 6:8</a>, rendered "coffer" in English Versions of the Bible and translated glossokomon, by Josephus, appears to stand for a small "chest" used to hold the gold figures sent by the Philistines as a guilt offering. It is from a word that means "to wag," "to move to and fro"; compare the similar word in Arabic meaning a bag filled with stones hung at the side of the camel to "preserve" equilibrium (Gesenius). But the same word Josephus uses is found in modern Greek and means "purse" or "bag" (Hatch). Later to "carry the bag" came to mean to be treasurer.<br><br>George B.
