'Partner' in the Bible
To be a thief’s partner is to hate oneself;he hears the curse but will not testify.
“Tarshish was your trading partner because of your great wealth of every kind. They exchanged silver, iron, tin, and lead for your merchandise.
Aram was your trading partner because of your numerous products. They exchanged turquoise, purple and embroidered cloth, fine linen, coral, and rubies for your merchandise.
Damascus was also your trading partner because of your numerous products and your great wealth of every kind, trading in wine from Helbon and white wool.
Yet you ask, “For what reason?” Because the Lord has been a witness between you and the wife of your youth. You have acted treacherously against her, though she was your marriage partner and your wife by covenant.
