Sense 3: amount, price, cost

Semantic entry: 57.161

Semantic domains: Possess, Transfer, Exchange

Subdomains: Pay, Price, Cost

Definition: the amount of money or property regarded as representing the value or price of something

Notes: It would be wrong to assume that τιμή in RV CO1 7:23 · LV CO1 7:23 · Read together CO1 7:23 necessarily means ‘a high price.’ The notion ‘high’ comes from the contextual reference to the death of Christ. In RV CO1 7:23 · LV CO1 7:23 · Read together CO1 7:23, however, the implication is that a price was set and that the payment has been made. If the passive expression in RV CO1 7:23 · LV CO1 7:23 · Read together CO1 7:23 must be made active, one may translate as ‘Christ bought you with a price’ or ‘Christ paid for you.’
