ATS Bible Dictionary

Emerald

A precious stone of a fine green color, found anciently in Ethiopia, but in modern times only in South America, Exodus 28:18; Ezekiel 27:16; 28:13. Josephus, however, and the Seventy make it a gem like a burning coal-the Indian ruby.

Easton's Bible Dictionary

Hebrews nophek (Exodus 28:18; 39:11); i.e., the "glowing stone", probably the carbuncle, a precious stone in the breastplate of the high priest. It is mentioned (Revelation 21:19) as one of the foundations of the New Jerusalem. The name given to this stone in the New Testament Greek is smaragdos, which means "live coal."

Webster's Revised Unabridged Dictionary

2. (n.) A kind of type, in size between minion and nonpareil. It is used by English printers.
