Context — The Judgment of Israelgenerated

18They will put on sackcloth, and terror will overwhelm them. Shame will cover all their faces, and all their heads will be shaved.
19They will throw their silver into the streets, and their gold will seem unclean. Their silver and gold cannot save them in the day of the wrath of the LORD. They cannot satisfy their appetites or fill their stomachs with wealth, for it became the stumbling block that brought their iniquity.
20His beautiful ornaments they transformed into pride and used them to fashion their vile images and detestable idols. Therefore I will make these into something unclean for them.
21And I will hand these things over as plunder to foreigners and loot to the wicked of the earth, who will defile them.

Ezekiel 7:19 describes a time when the people of Israel will realize that their wealth is useless in the face of divine judgment. They will throw their silver and gold into the streets, recognizing that these treasures cannot save them from the wrath of the LORD. This passage emphasizes the futility of trusting in material possessions during a time of crisis, highlighting a broader theme of reliance on God rather than earthly wealth.

The Key Word כֶּסֶף, kas.Pamgenerated

The Hebrew word כֶּסֶף (ke.seph) refers to silver or money, often associated with wealth and transactions. It is derived from a root meaning 'to be pale,' which may relate to the color of silver. In this verse, it highlights the value that the people once placed on their riches.

In this context, silver is depicted as worthless when faced with the impending judgment. The use of the term emphasizes the irony that what was once a source of security will become garbage in the streets.


How Translations Differ — measured against the Berean Standard Biblegenerated

This study reads the verse in the Berean Standard Bible, which uses silver and gold consistently across translations, including the KJV and ASV.


Sentence Structuregenerated

The finite verb יַשְׁלִ֗יכוּ governs the main action of the verse — they will throw — with several phrases detailing what is being thrown and the implications of that action. The structure emphasizes the futility of wealth in the face of divine judgment.

The word order places emphasis on the act of throwing away wealth, suggesting a dramatic rejection of what was once valued. This reflects the gravity of the situation as the people confront their impending doom.


Septuagint Backgroundgenerated

In the Septuagint, the Hebrew כֶּסֶף is rendered as ἀργύριον (argurion), a term that also means silver but carries connotations of monetary value. This choice indicates a focus on the material aspect of wealth.

The translation of לְנִדָּה is less clear, as the Septuagint does not provide a direct equivalent, which may suggest a broader interpretation of impurity.


In plain words — the whole versegenerated

Ezekiel 7:19 describes how the people of Israel will throw their silver and gold into the streets, realizing that these riches cannot save them from God's judgment. Their wealth will not satisfy their deepest needs, as it has become a source of sin and a stumbling block.

Why will they throw their silver into the streets?

Their riches will be utterly unavailing. The expression in the original is even stronger: their gold shall be to them “an unclean thing,” “filth,” because they shall perceive that it has been to them an occasion of sin.

יְהֹוָה (ye.ho.vah) is the proper name of the God of Israel, often rendered as Jehovah or the Lord. It signifies the self-existent or eternal nature of God. The name is closely associated with the revelation to Moses in Exodus 3:12-15 and is used in conjunction with other terms to denote sacred places.

for (ki (conjunction), le, from 'el (preposition), and various other words. In the New Testament also the words are various, chiefly gar, kai gar, hoti (conjunctions); anti apo eis dia (accusative), epi (dative and accusative), peri (genitive), pros (genitive and accusative), huper (genitive) (prepositions)): the English Revised Version and the American Standard Revised Version give in many cases more literal or more accurate renderings than those in the King James Version.

In the New Testament the most important preps. from a doctrinal point of view are anti, "face to face," "over against," "instead," "on behalf of," peri, "around," "about," "concerning," huper, "over," "on behalf of." The first has been claimed as stating the substitutionary nature of Christ's sacrifice as contrasted with huper and peri, more frequently used of it.

ov:

(1) In Anglo-Saxon, had the meaning "from," "away from" (as the strengthened form "off" has still), and was not used for genitive or possessive relations, these being expressed by special case-forms. In the Norman period, however, "of" was taken to represent the French de (a use well developed by the time of Chaucer), and in the Elizabethan period both senses of "of" were in common use. But after about 1600 the later force of the word became predominant, and in the earlier sense (which is now practically obsolete) it was replaced by other prepositions. In consequence the King James Version (and in some cases the Revised Version (British and American)) contains many uses of "of" that are no longer familiar--most of them, to be sure, causing no difficulty, but there still being a few responsible for real obscurities.

1. From or out of; proceeding from, as the cause, source, means, author or agent bestowing.

Hence of is the sign of the genitive case, the case that denotes production; as the son of man, the son proceeding from man, produced from man. This is the primary sense, although we now say, produced by man. 'Part of these were slain; ' that is, a number separate, for part denotes a division; the sense then is, a number from or out of the whole were slain. So also, 'some of these were slain; ' that is…

(1) Greek ginomai, used in New Testament for a change of state, corresponding to Hebrew hayah of Old Testament. Compare Mt 18:3 with De 27:9.

(2) For what is fitting, suitable, proper, in New Testament: "prepei" (Mt 3:15; Eph 5:3; 1Ti 2:10); in Old Testament, na'awah, na'ah, Ps 93:5: "Holiness becometh thy house." in this sense, the adverb "becomingly" must be interpreted: "Walk becomingly toward them that are without" (1Th 4:12), i.e. in a way that is consistent with your profession.
