1 Strong's Number: g1049 Greek: gazophulakion

Treasury:

from gaza, "a treasure," phulake, "a guard," is used by Josephus for a special room in the women's court in the Temple in which gold and silver bullion was kept. This seems to be referred to in Jhn 8:20; in Mar 12:41 (twice), 43; Luk 21:1 it is used of the trumpet-shaped or ram's-horn-shaped chests, into which the temple offerings of the people were cast. There were 13 chests, six for such gifts in general, seven for distinct purposes.

2 Strong's Number: g2878 Greek: korbanas

Treasury:

signifying "the place of gifts," denoted the Temple "treasury," Mat 27:6.
See CORBAN.
