There is no certainty as to what stone the word tarshish denotes. The LXX translate it by different words. In Ezekiel 1:16; Ezekiel 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. Exodus 28:20; Exodus 39:13; Song of Solomon 5:14; Ezekiel 28:13; Daniel 10:6 . In Revelation 21:20 the word is βήρυλλος, beryl.
