Gesenius' Hebrew and Chaldee Definition

פִּטְדָה f. a species of gem, Exodus 28:17; Ezekiel 28:13, found in Ethiopia (Job 28:19), according to several of the old interpreters, the topaz, a pale yellowish gem, found in an island of the Red Sea (Plin. xxxvii. 8). The origin of this word was sought by Bohlen (Abhandlungen der deutschen Gesellschaft zu Königsberg, i. p. 80), in the Sanscrit language, in which pĦta is pale; and the Gr. τοπάζιον itself may be from פטדה, טפדה, by transposition of the letters. More may be seen in Braunius, De Vestitu Sacerd. page 508. As to the gems of those regions, see Ritter, Erdkunde, ii. p. 675, ed. 2.
