The Key Word — ἀφιλάργυρος, aphilargurosgenerated
The word ἀφιλάργυρος (aphilarguros) is an adjective formed from a negative particle and a root meaning 'money.' It describes a state of being free from greed or love for money, as seen in the context of ethical behavior in the New Testament.
This term appears in both 1 Timothy 3:3 and Hebrews 13:5, indicating its significance in Christian conduct. The parsing as a nominative singular masculine adjective suggests it describes a characteristic of the subject, calling for a lifestyle devoid of covetousness.
How Translations Differ — measured against the Berean Standard Biblegenerated
In the Berean Standard Bible, the phrase 'free from the love of money' captures the essence of ἀφιλάργυρος. This is similarly reflected in the KJV with 'without covetousness' and the ASV with 'free from the love of money.'
However, the YLT and WEB use slightly varied phrases, such as 'without covetousness the behaviour' and 'content with such things as you have,' respectively, emphasizing the broader context of contentment alongside the avoidance of greed.
Sentence Structuregenerated
The main clause is governed by the verb Ἀφιλάργυρος, which is the key instruction regarding behavior. The structure includes a subordinate clause that elaborates on the contentment believers should have with their current circumstances.
The finite verb εἴρηκεν ('has said') introduces a direct quotation from God, reinforcing the assurance of His presence. This structure effectively combines ethical instruction with theological promise.
Septuagint Backgroundgenerated
τρόπος appears in the Septuagint and translates the Hebrew word for 'way' or 'manner,' indicating a lifestyle or behavior. It connects well with the ethical teachings in the New Testament, emphasizing the importance of how one lives.
παροῦσιν translates a concept of presence, linking to the assurance given in this verse about God's continual support and presence in the lives of believers.
In plain words — the whole versegenerated
Hebrews 13:5 teaches believers to avoid greed and be satisfied with what they have, reminding them that God will never abandon them. This assurance encourages a focus on spiritual rather than material wealth.
Frequently Asked Questionsgenerated
Being free from the love of money means not being driven by greed or a desire for wealth, allowing one to focus on spiritual values instead.
Contentment is vital because it reflects trust in God's provision and encourages a life focused on faith rather than material possessions.
God assures believers that He will never leave or forsake them, emphasizing His constant presence and support.
You can apply this teaching by practicing gratitude for what you have, resisting the urge to compare yourself with others, and trusting in God's provision.

The early church on this verse — how the Fathers read it
Clement of Alexandria and John Chrysostom reference this verse to discuss self-restraint and the philosophical character of a believer's life.
For God's greatest gift is self-restraint. For He Himself has said, "I will neyer leave thee, nor forsake thee"
Clement of Alexandria emphasizes the importance of self-restraint, linking it to God's promise of presence.
Early Church Fathers on Hebrews 13 →We must join in disciplining ourselves to beware of all that is subject to the passions. We must, like true philosophers, escape from any foods that arouse sexual desire, from a dissolute relaxation in bed,
Clement further encourages discipline to avoid passions that lead to greed.
Early Church Fathers on Hebrews 13 →"Let your conversation be without covetousness," he says. He did not say, Possess nothing, but, "Let your conversation be without covetousness": that is, let it show forth the philosophical character of your mind.
John Chrysostom interprets the instruction as a call to exhibit a philosophical mindset, free from covetousness.

The Greek word ἀφιλάργυρος (aphilarguros) is formed from a negative particle and a root meaning 'money.' It describes someone who is not greedy or fond of money, appearing in the New Testament in 1 Timothy 3:3 and Hebrews 13:5. The lexicons generally agree on its meaning, with variations in nuance such as 'not avaricious' or 'generous.'
ἀφιλάργυρος. For this word, which according to Grimm—Thayer is found “only in the NT ᾿᾿ (Ὁ), see (in addition to Didache 151) the quotation from P Oxy I. 33 s.v. ἀφιλάγαθοςς. Add Priene 137° (probably ii/B.c.) ; also Sy// 7325 (Athens, B.c. 36-5), 3251? (Istropolis, i/B.c.), both of which have the adverb ἀφιλαργύρως. Cf. Nageli, p. 31, Deissmann 2.4.2, p. 81f.

kuv'-et-us-nes: Has a variety of shades of meaning determined largely by the nature of the particular word used, or the context, or both. Following are some of the uses:
(1) To gain dishonestly (batsa`), e.g. the King James Version Ex 18:21; Eze 33:31.
(2) The wish to have more than one possesses, inordinately, of course (pleonexia), e.g. Lu 12:15; 1Th 2:5.
Covetousness
A strong desire after the possession of worldly things (Col. 3:5; Eph. 5:5; Heb. 13:5; 1 Tim. 6:9, 10; Matt. 6:20). It assumes sometimes the more aggravated form of avarice, which is the mark of cold-hearted worldliness.

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 τρόπος (tropos) means 'way,' 'manner,' or 'fashion,' and is derived from the verb τρέπω (trepo), which means 'to turn.' It is used in various contexts in the New Testament to describe modes of behavior, character, and ways of life, appearing in passages like Matthew 23:37 and Hebrews 13:5. The lexicons do not show significant disagreement on its meanings.

Of the Hebrew terms, chayah is the verb which means "to live," "to have life," or the vital principle, "to continue to live," or "to live prosperously." In the Piel it signifies "to give life, or preserve, or quicken and restore life." The Hiphil is much like the Piel. The noun hayyim generally used in the plural is an abstract noun meaning "life," i.e. the possession of the vital principle with its energies and activities. Nephesh often means "living being" or "creature." Sometimes it has the…
Life
Generally of physical life (Gen. 2:7; Luke 16:25, etc.); also used figuratively (1) for immortality (Heb. 7:16); (2) conduct or manner of life (Rom. 6:4); (3) spiritual life or salvation (John 3:16, 17, 18, 36); (4) eternal life (Matt. 19:16, 17; John 3:15); of God and Christ as the absolute source and cause of all life (John 1:4; 5:26, 39; 11:25; 12:50).
In the Bible, is either natural, Ge 3:17; spiritual, that of the renewed soul, Ro 8:6; or eternal, a holy and blissful immortality, Joh 3:36 Ro 6:23. Christ is the great Author of natural life, Col 1:16; and also of spiritual and eternal life; Joh 14:6 6:47. He has purchased these by laying down his own life; and gives them freely to his people, Joh 10:11,28. He is the spring of all their spiritual life on earth, Ga 2:20; will raise them up at the last day; and…

The Greek word ἀρκέω (arkeō) is built from the idea of warding off or being sufficient. It covers a range of meanings including to assist, to suffice, and to be satisfied, often used with a dative object. In the New Testament, it appears in verses like John 6:7 and 1 Timothy 6:8, where it conveys the sense of being enough or content.
ἀρκέω, -ῶ,
[in LXX for הוֹן, etc.;]
to keep off; c. dat., to assist.
to suffice: c. dat. pers., Jo 6:7, II Co 12:9; impers., Mt 25:9, Jo 14:8 (MM, s.v.). Pass., to be satisfied: c. dat. rei, Lk 3:14, I Ti 6:8, He 13:5; seq. ἐπί, III Jo 10.†
ἀρκέω. For an impersonal use of ἀρκέω, as in Jn 145, see Τ Lond 9641* (ii/iii A.D.) (= III. p. 212) λαβὼν κοτύλας τ[όϊσας φακῶν ἵνα ἀρκέσ[ῃ] ἡ[μ]ῖν, and cf. the late P Oxy I. 1311! (vi/vii A.D.) where, with reference to a disputed inheritance, it is stated that a father bequeathed half an acre of his land to a son, saying that it ‘‘is enough” for him— ὅτι ἀρκεῖ αὐτῷ Td ἡμιαρούριον.

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.

πάρειμι (pareimi) means to be present or near. It can refer to people being present (e.g., Revelation 17:8) or to things being at hand, such as time or truth (e.g., Hebrews 12:11). The word is built from the roots for 'near' and 'to be.' It also conveys the sense of having arrived or come to a place, as seen in Matthew 26:50.

αὐτός is a pronoun meaning 'self' or 'the same,' used to emphasize distinction or opposition. It can function as a reflexive pronoun and appears frequently in the New Testament, often in contexts that highlight contrast or identity, such as in Luke 5:37 and John 2:25. The entries indicate that it can also be used in various grammatical constructions, including with articles to denote sameness.

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…

εἶπον is the aorist form of λέγω, which means 'to say' or 'to speak.' It encompasses a range of uses, including direct speech, narration, and the expression of thoughts. In the New Testament, it appears in various contexts, such as in Matthew 27:11 and Mark 15:2. The lexicons do not show significant disagreement on its meanings or applications.
In dealing with synonyms of the N. T. we plainly need not concern ourselves with such earlier, or even contemporary, uses of the words which we are discriminating, as lie altogether outside of the N. T. sphere, when these uses do not illustrate, and have not affected, their Scriptural employment. It follows from this that all those contemptuous uses of λαλεῖν as to talk at random, as one ἀθυρόστομος, or with no door to his lips, might do; of λαλιά, as chatter («Kpacia λόγου ἄλογος, Plato, Defin. 416)—for I cannot believe that we are to find this at John iv. 42—may be dismissed and set aside. The antithesis in the line of Eupolis (Meineke, /ragm. Com. Gr. p. 174), Λαλεῖν ἄριστος, ἀδυνατώτατος λέγειν, does little or nothing to illustrate the matter in hand. The distinction which indeed exists between the words may in this way be made clear. There are two leading aspects under which speech…

The Greek word οὐ (transliterated as ou) is a primary negative particle meaning 'not' or 'no.' It is used to negate verbs or statements, often appearing in various forms depending on the following sound. In the New Testament, it frequently serves to deny facts and is distinct from another negative particle, μή (transliterated as mē), which is used for prohibitions or wishes.
οὐ, before a vowel with smooth breathing οὐκ, before one with rough breathing οὐχ (but improperly οὐχ ἰδού, Ac 2:7, WH, mg.; cf. WH, Intr., § 409; M, Pr., 44, 244),

absol. (accented), οὔ, no: Mt 13:29, Jo 1:21 21:5; οὒ οὔ, Mt 5:37, Ja 5:12.
οὐ before a consonant, οὐκ before a vowel with a smooth breathing, and ody before an aspirated vowel ; but sometimes in the best codd. οὐχ occurs even before a smooth breathing; accordingly LT WH mrg. have adopted οὐχ ἰδού, Acts ii. 7; LT οὐχ ᾿Ιουδαϊκῶς, Gal. ii. 14 (see WH.

μή (mē) is a Greek negative particle used to express subjective negation, often in conditional or hypothetical contexts. It contrasts with οὐ (ou), which indicates absolute denial. μή can function as an adverb meaning 'not' or as a conjunction meaning 'lest.' It appears in various grammatical constructions, including prohibitions and deliberative questions, and is referenced in verses like Matthew 5:29 and John 3:18.
μή,
subjective negative particle,
used where the negation depends on a condition or hypothesis, expressed or understood, as distinct from οὐ, which denies absolutely. μή is used where one thinks a thing is not, as distinct from an absolute negation. As a general rule, οὐ negatives the indic., μή the other moods, incl, ptcp. [In LXX for אֵין, אַיִן, אַל.]
As a neg. adv., not;
with ref. to thought or opinion: Jo 3:18, Tit 1:11, II Pe 1:9.
μή, Sept. for Ox, |X, PN, ἃ particle of negation, which differs from οὐ (which is always an adverb) in that ov denies the thing itself (orto speak technically, denies simply, absolutely, categorically, directly, objectively). but μή denies the thought of the thing, or the thing according to the judgment, opinion, will, purpose, preference, of some one (hence, as we say technically, indirectly, hypothetically, subjectively). This distinction holds also of the compounds οὐδείς, μηδείς, οὐκέτι, μηκέτι, ete. But pris either an ad verb of negation, not (Lat. non, ne); or aconjunction, that... not, lest, (Lat. ne); or an interrogative particle, (Lat. num) [i. e.

The Greek word ἀνίημι (i.e., *aniēmi*) is built from the prefix ἀν- and the root ἵημι, meaning to send or let go. It covers a range of meanings including to loosen, release, and give up. In the New Testament, it appears in contexts such as Acts 16:26, Acts 27:40, and Hebrews 13:5, where it conveys ideas of loosening bonds or leaving without support.
ἀν-ίημι, [ptep. plur. ἀνιέντες]: 2 aor. subj. ava, ptep. plur. ἀνέντες ; 1 aor. pass. dveOnv; to send back; to relax; contextually, to loosen: ri, Acts xvi. 26, (rods δεσμούς, Plut. Alex. M. 73); xxvii. 40. trop. τὴν ἀπειλήν, to give up, omit, calm [?], Eph. vi. 9; (τὴν ἔχθραν, Thue. 3, 10; τὴν ὀργήν, Plut. Alex. M.70). to leave, not to uphold, to let sink: Heb. xiii. 5, (Deut. xxxi. 6).

The Greek word οὐδέ (oude) is a negative particle that functions as a conjunction meaning 'and not' or 'nor,' and as an adverb meaning 'not even.' It combines elements of negation and exclusion, often appearing in phrases like 'neither... nor.' The New Testament uses it in various contexts, such as in Matthew 6:15 and Acts 4:32.
οὐδέ, [fr. Hom. down], a neg. disjunctive conjunction, compounded of ov and δέ, and therefore prop. i. q. but not; generally, however, its oppositive force being lost, it serves to continue a negation. [On the elision of ε when the next word begins with a vowel (observed by Tdf. in eight instances, neglected in fifty-eight), see TW. Proleg. p. 96; cf. WH. App. p. 146; W.§5, 1 a.; B. p. 10 sq.] It signifies 1. and not, continuing a negation, yet differently from οὔτε; for the latter connects parts or members of the same thing, since τέ is adjunctive like the Lat. que; but οὐδέ places side by side things that are equal and mutually exclude each other [(?). There appears to be some mistake here in what is said about ‘mutual exclusion’ (cf. W. § 55, 6): οὐδέ, like δέ, always makes reference to something preceding; οὔτε to what follows also; the connection of clauses negatived by οὔτε is…

The Greek word οὐ (transliterated as ou) is a primary negative particle meaning 'not' or 'no.' It is used to negate verbs or statements, often appearing in various forms depending on the following sound. In the New Testament, it frequently serves to deny facts and is distinct from another negative particle, μή (transliterated as mē), which is used for prohibitions or wishes.
οὐ, before a vowel with smooth breathing οὐκ, before one with rough breathing οὐχ (but improperly οὐχ ἰδού, Ac 2:7, WH, mg.; cf. WH, Intr., § 409; M, Pr., 44, 244),

absol. (accented), οὔ, no: Mt 13:29, Jo 1:21 21:5; οὒ οὔ, Mt 5:37, Ja 5:12.
οὐ before a consonant, οὐκ before a vowel with a smooth breathing, and ody before an aspirated vowel ; but sometimes in the best codd. οὐχ occurs even before a smooth breathing; accordingly LT WH mrg. have adopted οὐχ ἰδού, Acts ii. 7; LT οὐχ ᾿Ιουδαϊκῶς, Gal. ii. 14 (see WH.

μή (mē) is a Greek negative particle used to express subjective negation, often in conditional or hypothetical contexts. It contrasts with οὐ (ou), which indicates absolute denial. μή can function as an adverb meaning 'not' or as a conjunction meaning 'lest.' It appears in various grammatical constructions, including prohibitions and deliberative questions, and is referenced in verses like Matthew 5:29 and John 3:18.
μή,
subjective negative particle,
used where the negation depends on a condition or hypothesis, expressed or understood, as distinct from οὐ, which denies absolutely. μή is used where one thinks a thing is not, as distinct from an absolute negation. As a general rule, οὐ negatives the indic., μή the other moods, incl, ptcp. [In LXX for אֵין, אַיִן, אַל.]
As a neg. adv., not;
with ref. to thought or opinion: Jo 3:18, Tit 1:11, II Pe 1:9.
μή, Sept. for Ox, |X, PN, ἃ particle of negation, which differs from οὐ (which is always an adverb) in that ov denies the thing itself (orto speak technically, denies simply, absolutely, categorically, directly, objectively). but μή denies the thought of the thing, or the thing according to the judgment, opinion, will, purpose, preference, of some one (hence, as we say technically, indirectly, hypothetically, subjectively). This distinction holds also of the compounds οὐδείς, μηδείς, οὐκέτι, μηκέτι, ete.

σύ is the second-person singular pronoun meaning 'you' in Greek. It has various forms: genitive σοῦ, dative σοί, and accusative σέ.

The Greek word ἐγκαταλείπω (i.e., *egkataleipo*) is built from the prefix ἐν- and the verb καταλείπω. It means to leave behind, abandon, or forsake, and is used in various contexts, including both positive and negative senses. In the New Testament, it appears in verses such as Matthew 27:46 and Hebrews 13:5. The lexicons agree on its general meaning, but some emphasize different nuances of abandonment.
ἐγκαταλείπω. P Par 468 (B.c. 153) (= Witkowski?, p. 86) ὁ ἀδελφός σου... ληστῶν ἐπικειμένων ἐνκατελελοίπει pe ἀποδημήσας is a good ex. of the prevailing NT sense of this verb —to ‘leave in the lurch” one whois in straits: cf. P Oxy IT. 28174 (A.D. 20-50) ἐνκατέλιπέ pe λειτὴν καθεστῶσαν, “he deserted me, leaving me in a state of destitution” (Edd.). With a place as object, see P Ryl II. 128 (¢. a.p. 30) ἀλλότρια φρονήσασα ἐνκαταλιποῦσα τὸ ἐλαιούργιον ἀπηλλάγη, ‘‘changed her mind, left the mill, and departed”’ (Edd.). So P Oxy VIII. 112418 (A.D. 26) τοῦ δ᾽ ἐνκαταλιπεῖν τὴϊν γε]ωργία[ν] . . . ἐπίτιμον, ‘the penalty of abandoning the cultivation”’ (Ed.), Chvest. I. 72® (A.D. 234) μηδένα δὲ τῶν ἱερέων ἢ] ἱερωμένων ἐνκαταλελοιπέναι τὰς [θρ]ησκείας : cf. Heb τοῦδ. For the subst., which is found in the LXX, see P Petr II. 4 (11)?
