    Comments: ταμεῖον[b] and θησαυρός[a] may often be rendered by descriptive phrases, for example, ‘a room where valuable things are kept’ or ‘a place where valuables are stored.’|In {S:04001203500014} θησαυρός[a] is used figuratively (ὁ ἀγαθὸς ἄνθρωπος ἐκ τοῦ ἀγαθοῦ θησαυροῦ ἐκβάλλει ἀγαθά ‘a good man draws good things from his good storehouse,’ meaning ‘… storehouse of good things’) to describe the heart as a kind of storehouse or treasure.
