Best Answer

The word "peculiar" appears only seven times in the King James version of The Bible: five times in the Old Testament and twice in the New. In every case, the sense of the original word is, "a possession; a valued property; a treasure."

1 Peter 2:9 - But ye are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, an holy nation, a peculiar people; that ye should show forth the praises of him who hath called you out of darkness into his marvellous light:

Other translations render the word as "special" (Standard, NKJV), and "a people belonging to God" (NIV).
