The Key Wordgenerated
The word μισθαποδοσία is a noun meaning 'recompense' or 'reward,' derived from the roots for 'wage' and 'to give back.' It refers to the payment received for one's actions, encompassing both rewards and punishments. In this verse, it highlights the future reward that Moses anticipated for his faithfulness.
This term appears only a few times in the New Testament, indicating its specific application to the context of divine recompense. The parsing as an accusative singular feminine noun suggests it is the direct object of the verb, emphasizing the focus on the reward that Moses was looking toward.
How Translations Differ — measured against the Berean Standard Biblegenerated
The verse is rendered in the Berean Standard Bible as 'He valued disgrace for Christ above the treasures of Egypt, for he was looking ahead to his reward.' The KJV uses 'Esteeming the reproach of Christ greater riches than the treasures in Egypt,' which maintains the emphasis on the comparison between disgrace and wealth.
Where translations differ, they primarily vary in the rendering of πλοῦτον as either 'wealth' or 'riches.' The BSB and WEB choose 'treasures,' while others like the ASV and KJV use 'riches.' The word ὀνειδισμὸν is translated as 'reproach' in most versions, but the BBE opts for 'shame.' Lastly, μισθαποδοσίαν is rendered as 'reward' in several translations, while others like the ASV use 'recompense.'
Sentence Structuregenerated
The main verb in this verse is ἡγησάμενος, having esteemed, which governs the rest of the sentence. It connects the subject, Moses, with the object of his esteem: the disgrace for Christ. The structure emphasizes Moses' decision-making process regarding his values.
The sentence contains multiple phrases that elaborate on Moses' choice, including a comparative phrase that highlights the value of disgrace over the treasures of Egypt and a clause that explains his motivation: looking toward the reward. This hierarchical structure reflects the logical flow of Moses' reasoning.
Septuagint Backgroundgenerated
μισθαποδοσία does not have a direct equivalent in the Septuagint but relates to the concept of divine reward found in various contexts. The Hebrew term שָׁלֵם (to repay) conveys a similar idea of recompense for actions, particularly in the context of faithfulness to God.
The term ὀνειδισμὸς corresponds with the Hebrew חֶרְפָּה, which means reproach or shame, used in contexts that discuss the suffering of the faithful.

μέγας is an adjective meaning 'great' or 'large,' used to describe size, intensity, or importance. It can refer to physical dimensions, such as a stone or city, or to abstract qualities like love or fear. In the New Testament, it appears in various contexts, including Matthew 2:10 and Revelation 11:8. The word has comparative and superlative forms: μείζων (greater) and μέγιστος (greatest).

The Greek word πλοῦτος (ploutos) means wealth or riches, encompassing both material possessions and spiritual abundance. It appears in various contexts in the New Testament, such as in Matthew 13:22 and Ephesians 3:8, often referring to the richness of God's blessings. The term is derived from the root of another word meaning fullness, indicating a sense of abundance.

The Greek word ἡγέομαι (i.e., *hēgeomai*) is a deponent verb meaning 'to lead' or 'to guide.' It can also mean 'to think' or 'to consider.' In the New Testament, it appears in contexts related to leadership and authority, such as in Matthew 2:6 and Acts 14:12. Lexicons note its use for both physical leadership and mental consideration, but they do not significantly disagree on its meanings.

The definite article — the commonest word in the Greek New Testament at 19,867 occurrences. Greek uses it more freely than English does and can drop it deliberately, so its presence and its absence both carry weight for a translator; but no single occurrence carries a message of its own. Here it simply gathers “the things” into one definite bundle.

The Greek word Αἴγυπτος refers to Egypt, the well-known country associated with the Nile River. It appears in several New Testament passages, including Matthew and Acts, and is sometimes used figuratively to describe Jerusalem in Revelation. The lexicons note its uncertain derivation and provide various references to its historical and geographical significance.

In Rev. xi. 8 Avy. is figuratively used for Jerusalem i. 6. for the Jewish nation viewed as persecuting Christ and his followers, and so to be likened to the Egyptians in their ancient hostility to the true God and their endeayors to crush his people.

Egypt
The land of the Nile and the pyramids, the oldest kingdom of which we have any record, holds a place of great significance in Scripture.
The Egyptians belonged to the white race, and their original home is still a matter of dispute. Many scholars believe that it was in Southern Arabia, and recent excavations have shown that the valley of the Nile was originally inhabited by a low-class population, perhaps belonging to the Nigritian stock, before the Egyptians of history entered it. The ancient Egyptian language, of which the latest form is Coptic, is distantly connected with the Semitic family of speech.
Egypt consists geographically of two halves, the northern being the Delta, and the southern Upper Egypt, between Cairo and the First Cataract. In the Old Testament, Northern or Lower Egypt is called Mazor, “the fortified land” (Isa.…
(land of the Copts), a country occupying the northeast angle of Africa. Its limits appear always to have been very nearly the same. It is bounded on the north by the Mediterranean Sea, on the east by Palestine, Arabia and the Red Sea, on the south by Nubia, and on the west by the Great Desert. It is divided into upper Egypt --the valley of the Nile --and lower Egypt, the plain of the Delta, from the Greek letter; it is formed by the branching mouths of the Nile, and the Mediterranean Sea. The portions made fertile by the Nile comprise about 9582 square geographical miles, of which only about 5600 is under cultivation. --Encyc. Brit. The Delta extends about 200 miles along the Mediterranean, and Egypt is 520 miles long from north to south from the sea to the First Cataract. NAMES. --The common name of Egypt in the Bible is "Mizraim." It is in the dual number, which indicates the two…
A celebrated country in the north of Africa, at the eastern part of the Mediterranean Sea. The Hebrews called it Mizraim, Ge 10:6, and hence it is now called by the Arabs, Mizr. The Greeks and Romans called it Aegyptus, whence Egypt; but the origin of this name is unknown.
The habitable land of Egypt is for the most part a great valley, through which the river Nile pours its waters, extending in a straight line from north to south, and skirted on the east and west by ranges of mountains, which approach and recede from the river more or less in different parts. Where this valley terminates, towards the north, the Nile divides itself, about forty or fifty miles from the seacoast, into several arms, which inclose the so-called Delta. The ancients numbered seven arms and mouths; the eastern was that of Pelusium, now that of Tineh; and the…

θησαυρός refers to a treasure or storehouse, derived from the root of τίθημι, meaning to place or lay up. It encompasses various meanings, including a casket for valuables, a treasury, and metaphorically, the soul as a store of thoughts and feelings. The New Testament uses it in contexts of spiritual wealth and heavenly treasures, particularly in passages like Matthew 6:19-21.

Kings were wont to store their possessions and guard what they most valued in well-fortified cities, hence called treasure-cities, Ex 1:11; 1Ch 27:25; Ezr 5:17. "Treasures in the field," Jer 41:8, were provisions, etc., buried, as is the custom in many parts of the world, in subterranean pits. Numerous ruined granaries of this kind are still found in the vicinity of Bethshean. The "pilgrim fathers" in like manner found heaps of corn buried in the ground by the Indians. In consequence also of the great insecurity of property in the East, it seems to have been usual from the earliest times to hide in the ground gold and jewels; and the owners being killed or driven away, or…

The definite article — the commonest word in the Greek New Testament at 19,867 occurrences. Greek uses it more freely than English does and can drop it deliberately, so its presence and its absence both carry weight for a translator; but no single occurrence carries a message of its own. Here it simply gathers “the things” into one definite bundle.

The Greek word ὀνειδισμός (i.e., *oneidismos*) means reproach or reviling. It is derived from the verb ὀνειδίζω and is used in the New Testament in passages like Romans 15:3 and Hebrews 10:33. The entries indicate its use in both a general sense of reproach and specifically in relation to the suffering of Christ.
ὀνειδισμός, -ov, ὁ, (ὀνειδίζω), [ef. W. 24], a reproach . Ro. xv. 3: 1 Tim. iii. 7; Heb. x. 33; ὁ ὀνειδισμὸς τοῦ Xpe στοῦ i.e. such as Christ suffered (for the cause of God, from its enemies), Heb. xi. 26; xiii. 13; cf. W. 189 (178). (Plut. Artax. 22; [Dion. Hal.]; Sept. chiefly for 7371.)
ὀνειδισμός. To the references for this comparatively rare word (Rom 15° a/.) we may add Joseph. Avé¢. xix. 319, and Vett. Val. pp. 65’, 737.

The definite article — the commonest word in the Greek New Testament at 19,867 occurrences. Greek uses it more freely than English does and can drop it deliberately, so its presence and its absence both carry weight for a translator; but no single occurrence carries a message of its own. Here it simply gathers “the things” into one definite bundle.

Χριστός (Christos) means 'anointed' and refers specifically to the Messiah, a title used for Jesus in the New Testament. The term is derived from the verb χρίω (to anoint) and appears in various contexts, including references to anointing oil and the anointed kings of Israel. It is used substantively as 'the Christ' in many New Testament verses, such as Matthew 2:4 and John 1:20.

Christ
Anointed, the Greek translation of the Hebrew word rendered “Messiah” (q.v.), the official title of our Lord, occurring five hundred and fourteen times in the New Testament. It denotes that he was anointed or consecrated to his great redemptive work as Prophet, Priest, and King of his people. He is Jesus the Christ (Acts 17:3; 18:5; Matt. 22:42), the Anointed One. He is thus spoken of by Isaiah (61:1), and by Daniel (9:24-26), who styles him “Messiah the Prince.”
The Messiah is the same person as “the seed of the woman” (Gen. 3:15), “the seed of Abraham” (Gen. 22:18), the “Prophet like unto Moses” (Deut.…
[Jesus]
Anointed, a Greek word, answering to the Hebrew MESSIAH, the consecrated or anointed one, and given preeminently to our blessed Lord and Savior. See MESSIAH and JESUS.
The ancient Hebrews, being instructed by the prophets, had clear notions of the Messiah; but these became gradually depraved, so that when Jesus appeared in Judea, the Jews entertained a false conception of the Messiah, expecting a temporal monarch and conqueror, who should remove the Roman yoke and subject the whole world. Hence they were scandalized at the outward appearance, the humility, and seeming weakness of our Savior. The modern Jews, including still greater mistakes, form to themselves ideas of the Messiah utterly unknown to their forefathers.
The ancient prophets had foretold that the Messiah should be God, and man; exalted, and abased; master, and servant; priest, and victim; prince, and subject; involved in…

The Greek word ἀποβλέπω (apoblepo) combines the prefix ἀπο- (away from) with βλέπω (to look). It means to look away from everything else and focus intently on one object, often with admiration or love. In the New Testament, it is used to describe a steadfast gaze, as seen in Hebrews 11:26. The lexicons do not show significant disagreement on its meaning.
ἀπο-βλέπω,
[in LXX for פּנה, etc.;]
to look away from all else at one object; hence, to look steadfastly: He 11:26 (cf. ἀφοράω).†
ἀπο-βλέπω : [impf. ἀπέβλεπον] ; to turn the eyes away from other things and fix them on some one thing; to look at attentively : eis τε (often in Grk. writ.) ; trop. to look with steadfast mental gaze: εἰς τ. μισθαποδοσίαν, Heb. xi. 26 [W. § 66, 2d.].

The Greek word γάρ (gar) is a coordinating particle primarily used to introduce reasons or explanations, similar to 'for' in English. It can serve various functions, including causal, explicative, and conclusive, and is often placed after the first word in a clause. In the New Testament, it appears in contexts that clarify or justify preceding statements, aligning with its classical usage.
γάρ, a conjunction, which ace. to its composition, γέ and dpa (i. 4. ἄρ), is properly a particle of affirmation and conclusion, denoting truly therefore, verily as the case stands, “ the thing is first aflirmed by the particle yé, and then is referred to what precedes by the force of the particle dpa” (Klotz ad Devar. ii. 1, p. 232; οἵ. Kiihner ii. p. 724; [Jelf § 786; W. 445 (415) sq-]). Now since by a new affirmation not infrequently the reason and nature of something previously mentioned are set forth, it comes to pass that, by the use of this particle, either the reason and cause of a foregoing statement is added, whence arises the causal or argumentative force of the particle, for (Lat. nam, enim; Germ. denn) ; or some previous declaration is explained, whence γάρ takes on an ex plicative force: YP Sor, the fact is, namely (Lat. videlicet, Germ. ndmilich). Thus the force of the…

CONJ CONJunction or conjunctive particle
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. But, although anti in the New Testament often means…

The definite article — the commonest word in the Greek New Testament at 19,867 occurrences. Greek uses it more freely than English does and can drop it deliberately, so its presence and its absence both carry weight for a translator; but no single occurrence carries a message of its own. Here it simply gathers “the things” into one definite bundle.

THE, an adjective or definitive adjective.
1. This adjective is used as a definitive, that is, before nouns which are specific or understood; or it is used to limit their signification to a specific thing or things, or to describe them; as the laws of the twelve tables. the independent tribunals of justice in our country, are the security or private rights, and the best bulwark against arbitrary power. the sun is the source of light and heat.
This he calls the preaching of the cross.
2. the is also used rhetorically before a noun in the singular number, to denote a species by way of distinction; a single thing representing the whole. the fig tree putteth forth her green figs; the almond tree shall flourish; the grasshopper shall be a burden.
3. In poetry, the sometimes loses the final vowel before another vowel.
Th' adorning thee with so much art,
Is but a barb'rous skill.

The Greek word μισθαποδοσία (*misthapodosia*) is formed from the roots for 'wage' (μισθός) and 'to give back' (ἀποδίδωμι). It refers to the payment of wages or recompense, encompassing both rewards and punishments. The New Testament uses it in Hebrews 10:35, 11:26, and 2:2, highlighting its dual connotation of reward and punishment.

re-word': In modern English (except when influenced by the Biblical forms) a "reward" is something given in recognition of a good act. In English Versions of the Bible, however, "reward" is used quite generally for anything given, and the term covers the recompense of evil (Ps 91:8), wages (1Ti 5:18 the King James Version), bribes (Mic 7:3), and gifts (Jer 40:5 the King James Version). The Revised Version (British and American) has specialized the meaning in a number of cases (Ps 94:2; Eze 16:34; Jer 40:5, etc.)…
