Ezekiel 27:16

16The Syrian was your merchant. Because of the multitude of your works, they offered jewels, and purple, and patterned cloth, and fine linen, and silk, and other valuables in your market.
27:16The meaning of ‘chodchod’ is not clear. Some say it refers to some types of gem stone, but the first item in this list of valuable goods is a general word referring to precious stones, so it would not make sense to end the list with a very similar word. Since it is the last item in the list and is vague in meaning (by all accounts), it likely means ‘other valuables’.(Conte)

27:16 Chodchod: It is the Hebrew name for some precious stone; but of what kind in particular interpreters are not agreed.(Challoner)
