Meaning: treasure, a coffer. Word Origin: Derived from a root that implies storing or hiding. Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: The Greek equivalent often used in the Septuagint and the New Testament is "θησαυρός" (thēsauros), Strong's Greek #2344, which also means treasure or storehouse.
אָסְפַּרְנָא (osparna) -- Treasure, storehouse. Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: While there is no direct Greek equivalent for "osparna," the concept of a treasury is captured in Greek by words such as "θησαυρός" (thēsauros), which also means treasure or storehouse (e.g., Matthew 6:19-21).
"treasure," genaz (Aramaic) or genez (Hebrew), usually meaning "the thing stored"; translated "treasures" in Ezra 6:1, but in 5:17 and 7:20 translated "treasure-house": "search made in the king's treasure-house."
The English word "treasure" has in the Old Testament at least five somewhat distinct meanings as expressed in the words: "treasure," genaz (Aramaic) or genez (Hebrew), usually meaning "the thing stored"; translated "treasures" in Ezr 6:1, but in 5:17 and 7:20 translated "treasure-house": "search made in the king's treasure-house."
This meaning is demonstrated both by Ben Sira 46:19 which paraphrases i Samuel 12:3, by juxtaposing the Hebrew word kofer, "gift," with the word naʿalayim, and by Targum Jonathan which translates naʿalayim in Amos 2:6 and 8:6 by a form of the word ḥosen, "treasure" (see above).

STOREHOUSE (בֵּ֣ית הָאﯴצָ֗ר, house of the store, treasure; i.e. treasury, storehouse). Malachi charged that the people of his day had robbed God because they had failed to bring their tithes into the “storehouse” of God ( Mal 3:10 ); he evidently had reference to the Temple treasury.
