The meaning of Price in the Bible
(From International Standard Bible Encyclopedia)
pris: Represents various words in the Old Testament; time, is the usual Greek word for "price" in the New Testament. "Of great price" is polutimos, in Matthew 13:46, and poluteles, in I Peter 3:4. The verb occurs in Zechariah 11:13 the King James Version and the English Revised Version as "prised." The spelling "prized" in the American Standard Revised Version and some editions of the King James Version is due to a confusion with "prize." For "price of a dog" (Deuteronomy 23:18 the King James Version) see DOG.
