Pine
American Tract Society Bible Dictionary
In Nehemiah 8:15 , denotes some tree of a resinous nature. A different word in Isaiah 41:19 60:13 , probably indicates the pine; a noble emblem of the promised prosperity of the church. Several varieties of pines abound upon Mount Lebanon, the largest of which is the sunobar kubar; also found on several sandy plains of Palestine. Its wood is much used for beams and rafters.
