cho.sen denotes material holdings or valuables, whether possessed, seized, surrendered, or unable to last.

The occurrences portray cho.sen as material holdings or valuables: possessions in a righteous house, city resources handed to enemies, and goods seized by violent prophets. Its use also frames such holdings as impermanent, while Isaiah 33:6 places it in a construct expression alongside salvation, wisdom, and knowledge.

   In Proverbs 15:6 the absolute form occurs in the clause about what the righteous person's house holds; in Ezekiel 22:25 it is among what the prophets seize while devouring lives. Jeremiah 20:5 uses the construct form in the city's resources given into enemies' hands, and Proverbs 27:24 places the absolute form in a statement that such possessions do not endure forever.

2. A prized possession in a construct expression · rare

   Isaiah 33:6 has the construct form in a clause where the fear of the LORD is described as his treasure, following an abundance of salvation, wisdom, and knowledge. The verse supports a valuable or treasured possession, though the translation does not isolate the term word-for-word.

   Isaiah 33:6

In the Anselm Project Bible: The APB renders the relevant clauses with "wealth," "treasure," and "riches," and also speaks of things being seized or handed to enemies. These variations show the verses' presentation rather than fixed English equivalents.
