Brown-Driver-Briggs Expanded Definition
 יַהֲלֹם noun [masculine] a precious stone, jasper ? (so ᵐ5ᵑ9), or onyx? (compare Di Exodus 28:18) (apparently from v הלם; owing to its hardness, as able to smite, hammer?) — mentioned in lists of precious stones Exodus 28:18; Exodus 39:11; Ezekiel 28:13.

Gesenius' Hebrew and Chaldee Definition

יַהֲלֹם m. a kind of hard gem, so called from the idea of striking (root הָלַם), Exodus 28:18, 39:11 Ezekiel 28:13. The ancient translators sometimes render this by diamond, sometimes by emerald, sometimes by jasper; but this last is certainly incorrect, for in Eze. loc. cit. it is joined with יַשְׁפֶּה, which can hardly be doubted to be the jasper. See Braun, De Vestitu Sacerdotum, ii. 13.
