loaf, morsel, piece, plain, talent
Dictionary of Biblical Words:
A talent of gold is said to be worth £5,475, hence this fitly represents in the parable in Matt. 18:23 the difference between sins against God and against my fellow man, the former being represented by the sum of £54,750,000, the other by £3 2S. 6d.
Boyd’s Bible Dictionary:
(part). In O. T., “pieces of gold,’” pieces of silver,” may well be read shekels’ weight, or shekels, of gold or silver (Gen. 20:16; 2 Kings 5:5). In N. T., “pieces” (Matt. 26:15; 27:3-9), are unknown. In Luke 15:8, for “pieces” read drachmas.
