Filthy lucre
1 Timothy 3:3 Not given to wine, no striker, not greedy of filthy lucre; but patient, not a brawler, not covetous;
1 Timothy 3:8 Likewise must the deacons be grave, not doubletongued, not given to much wine, not greedy of filthy lucre;
Titus 1:7 For a bishop must be blameless, as the steward of God; not selfwilled, not soon angry, not given to wine, no striker, not given to filthy lucre;
Titus 1:11 Whose mouths must be stopped, who subvert whole houses, teaching things which they ought not, for filthy lucre’s sake.
1 Peter 5:2 Feed the flock of God which is among you, taking the oversight thereof, not by constraint, but willingly; not for filthy lucre, but of a ready mind;
Filthy lucre is from two words aischros [1] and the word kerdos [2].
The word aischros comes from or is the same as aischunomai[3]
The Corban of the Pharisees was a source of a dishonorable benefit for it made the word of God to none effect. Any benefit that comes from Wantonness or Greed would qualify as filthy Lucre.
