Genesis 2:12

12. Bdellium The word הבדלח occurs only here and in Numbers 11:7. The Septuagint renders it by ανθραξ in this passage, and by κρυσταλλος in Numbers . Gesenius, following Bochart and the rabbins, takes the word collectively in the sense of pearls . The English version, bdellium, follows Josephus, the Vulgate, and the Greek versions of Aquila, Theodotion, and Symmachus, and is as probably correct as any . Bdellium is a transparent, waxlike resin, now found on the trunks of trees in India .

Onyx stone Some render beryl; others, sardonyx . Some precious stone is meant, but it is impossible to determine its identity .
