It is a fine pellucid substance never debased with any admixture of other matter; susceptible of elegant tinges from metal-line particles; giving fire with steel; not fermenting with acid menstrua; scarcely calcinable by any degree of fire; and of one simple and permanent appearance in all lights.

Theophrastus and Pliny say it resembles the carbuncle, of a brightness sparkling like fire. an agate.{Shevo,} the agate, a semi-pellucid compound gem, formed of different simple minerals, as chalcedony, cornelian, jasper. horn-stone, quartz, amethyst, opal, etc.; joined irregularly or in layers. It is of a white, reddish, yellowish, or greenish ground; and so variously figured in its substance as to represent plants, trees, animals, and other objects. an amethyst.{Achlamah,} an amethyst, a transparent gem, composed of a strong blue and deep red; and according as either prevails, affording different tinges of purple, sometimes approaching to violet, and sometimes even fading to a pale rose colour. a beryl.Tarshish, a pellucid gem, of a sea or blueish green colour. a jasper.{Yaspeh,} the jasper, a hard stone, of which there are not less than fifteen varieties of colour, as green, red, yellow, brown, black, etc. Re 21:12 chains at the ends.28:14; 2Ch 3:5; So 1:10; Joh 10:28; 17:12; 1Pe 1:5; Jude 1:1 gold rings.25:12 17 two wreathen.28:14; So 1:10ephod.2 19 coupling.26:3 as the Lord.Mt 16:24; 1Co 1:25,27Isaiah 59:17

The "four angels bound in the Euphrates" denote their four sultanies bordering on that river, where they were confined till after the period of the Crusades. The time for which they were prepared, "an hour, and a day, and a month, and a year," computing a year for each day, amounts to 391 years, 15 days; and from their first conquest over the Christians, A.D. 1281, to the taking of Cameniec from the Poles, A.D. 1672, which was the last conquest by which their dominion was extended, is exactly that period. 9jacinth.21:20brimstone.18; 14:10; 19:20; 21:8; Ge 19:24; Ps 11:6; Isa 30:33; Eze 33:22as the.1Ch 12:8; Isa 5:28,29
