There is no certainty as to what stone the word tarshish denotes. The LXX translate it by different words. In Ezekiel 1:16 and Ezekiel 10:9 the “wheels” are compared to its color, 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 (Ex. 28:20; Ex. 39:13; Song of Sol. 5:14; Ezek. 28:13; Dan. 10:6). In Revelation 21:20 the word is βήρυλλος, beryl.
