Bdellium (ISBE)

DIC dictionary-entry · status:draft · license:PD

del´i -um ( בּדלח , bedhōlaḥ ): The word occurs twice in the Pentateuch: (1) in Genesis 2:12 , in conjunction with gold and onyx, as a product of the land of HAVILAH (which see), and (2) in Numbers 11:7 , where the manna is likened to this substance in appearance: "The appearance thereof as the appearance of bdellium." The latter comparison excludes the idea of bedhōlaḥ being a precious stone, and points to the identification of it with the fragrant resinous gum known to the Greeks as bdellion , several kinds being mentioned by Dioscorides and Pliny. It was a product of Arabia, India, Afghanistan, etc.
