the rendering in the Authorized Version of the Hebrew word tarshish, a precious stone; probably so called as being brought from Tarshish. It was one of the stones on the breastplate of the high priest (Ex 28:20; R.V. marg., "chalcedony;" Ex 39:13). The colour of the wheels in Ezekiel's vision was as the colour of a beryl stone (Ex 1:16; 10:9; R.V., "stone of Tarshish"). It is mentioned in Song 5:14; Da 10:6; Re 21:20. In Eze 28:13 the LXX. render the word by "chrysolite," which the Jewish historian Josephus regards as its proper translation. This also is the rendering given in the Authorized Version in the margin. That was a gold-coloured gem, the topaz of ancient authors.

There is no certainty as to what stone the word tarshish denotes. The LXX translate it by different words. In Eze 1:16; 10:9 the 'wheels' are compared to its colour, without stating what that was. Some suppose it was the golden topaz; others that it was the chrysolite. It was the first in the fourth row of the high priest's breastplate, and is mentioned in the foundation of the heavenly Jerusalem. Ex 28:20; 39:13; Cant. 5:14; Eze 28:13; Da 10:6. In Re 21:20 the word is ????????, beryl.

(tarshish) occurs in
It is generally supposed that the tarshish derives its name from the place so called, in Spain. Beryl is a mineral of great hardness, and, when transparent, of much beauty. By tarshish the modern yellow topaz is probably intended, while in
a different stone is perhaps referred to, probably the mineral now called beryl, which is identical with the emerald except in color, being a light green or bluish-green.
