The meaning of Answerable in the Bible
(From International Standard Bible Encyclopedia)
an'-ser-a-bl: This word is found in the Old Testament only. Moses and Ezekiel alone use it (Exodus 38:18; Ezekiel 40:18; Ezekiel 45:7; Ezekiel 48:13, Ezekiel 48:18). It is used in the Old English sense of "corresponding to," "in harmony with." Bunyan uses it in the same sense (Holy War, Clar. Press ed., 92).
