Scrip:
The Hebrew word thus translated appears in 1 Samuel 17:40 as a synonym for the bag in which the shepherds of Palestine carried their food or other necessities. The scrip of the Galilean peasants was of leather, used especially to carry their food on a journey, and slung over their shoulders (Matthew 10:10; Mark 6:8; Luke 9:3; 22:35). The English word "scrip" is probably connected with scrape, scrap, and was used in like manner for articles of food.
The Blue Letter Bible ministry and the BLB Institute hold to the historical, conservative Christian faith, which includes a firm belief in the inerrancy of Scripture. Since the text and audio content provided by BLB represent a range of evangelical traditions, all of the ideas and principles conveyed in the resource materials are not necessarily affirmed, in total, by this ministry.
