Gopher-wood. The ark was made of this material. Genesis 6:14 It was some resinous wood, such as cedar, pine, fir, or cypress, which was considered by the ancients as the most durable wood. It abounded in Syria, was used very commonly for shipbuilding, and was almost the only wood which could furnish suitable timber for so large a vessel as the ark.
