The concept of the pound is primarily found in the New Testament, where it is used to describe both a measure of weight and a monetary value.<br><br><b>Weight and Currency</b><br><br>The pound, as a unit of weight, is often associated with the Greek term "mina." In the New Testament, the mina is mentioned in the context of parables and teachings of Jesus. The mina was a significant unit of currency in the ancient world, equivalent to about 100 drachmas or denarii. In modern terms, it is estimated to be roughly one and a quarter pounds or about 0.57 kilograms.<br><br><b>Biblical References</b><br><br>One of the most notable references to the pound is found in the Parable of the Ten Minas, as recorded in the Gospel of Luke. In this parable, Jesus uses the mina to teach about stewardship and accountability. The Berean Standard Bible translates the relevant passage as follows:<br><br>"A man of noble birth went to a distant country to lay claim to his kingship and then return. Beforehand, he called ten of his servants and gave them ten minas. 'Conduct business with this until I return,' he said" (<a href="/luke/19-12.htm">Luke 19:12-13</a>).<br><br>In this parable, the mina represents the resources and responsibilities entrusted to believers by God. The nobleman, symbolizing Christ, expects His servants to use these resources wisely and productively until His return. The varying degrees of success among the servants illustrate the different levels of faithfulness and diligence in fulfilling one's God-given duties.<br><br><b>Symbolism and Application</b><br><br>The pound, as depicted in the Parable of the Ten Minas, serves as a metaphor for the spiritual gifts, talents, and opportunities that God bestows upon His followers. The expectation is that believers will invest these gifts in the service of God's kingdom, yielding spiritual fruit and growth. The parable underscores the principles of stewardship, accountability, and the anticipation of Christ's return.<br><br>The use of the pound in this context also highlights the importance of faithfulness in small matters, as Jesus teaches that those who are faithful with little will be entrusted with much (<a href="/luke/19-17.htm">Luke 19:17</a>). This principle encourages believers to be diligent and responsible in all aspects of their lives, recognizing that their actions have eternal significance.<br><br><b>Historical Context</b><br><br>In the broader historical context, the pound as a unit of currency was widely used in the ancient Near East and the Greco-Roman world. It facilitated trade and commerce, serving as a standard measure for transactions. The economic systems of the time were complex, and the use of standardized weights and measures like the pound helped maintain fairness and consistency in trade.<br><br><b>Conclusion</b><br><br>The concept of the pound in the Bible, particularly in the teachings of Jesus, provides valuable insights into the nature of stewardship and the responsibilities of believers. Through the lens of the pound, Scripture calls Christians to be faithful stewards of the resources and opportunities God has entrusted to them, always mindful of the coming of the Lord and the eternal impact of their earthly endeavors.<a name="smi" id="smi"></a><div class="vheading2">Smith's Bible Dictionary</div><span class="encheading">Pound</span><p><ol> <li>A weight.
