Text Appearing Before Image:
ac-curate, but these are few, and even in these there is no doubtas to the general accuracy of the renderings proposed. Thetable is drawn up from various documents, and chiefly fromthe very elaborate articles on this subject prepared, by Dr.Koyle, for Kittos Biblical Cyclopaedia. Almond is the name of two trees mentioned in Scripture; the one, Luz,translated hazel, Gen. xxx. 37, is the wild almond (Boch. Jer.Rosenm.), and the other Shaked, the cultivated almond. Theflowers are like the bloom of the apple-tree, at first rose-colored,and then white. It is hence a symbol of old age, Eccl. xii. 5, andfrom its early blossoming, of any sudden interposition, Jer. i. 11:Numb. xvii. 8: Gen. xliii. 11. Almug, or Algum, is not known. Sandal-wood, which is yellow orwhite, and fragrant, answers the description given 1 Kings x. 11, 1 Illustration of Olive-tree and berry, facing pages 258, 264. 2 Illustration of Oelbanum, facing page 262. 3 Illustration of Locust flying and at rest, facing page 280.

29 w BOTANY OF SCRIPTURE. 259 12. The name given in 2 Chron. ii. 8 is probably an error of thetranscribers, see 1 Kings x. 11, and 2 Chron. ix. 10, 11. Aloes, properly lign-aloes, must be carefully distinguished from thealoe, which emits no agreeable odor, see Psa. xlv. 8: Numb. xxiv.6. This tree is still known in India by the name of Aghil, and inEurope as the Eagle-tree (Aquilaria). The wood is highly odo-riferous, and the tree is said in Eastern tradition to have been oneof the trees of Paradise. The wood was very costly, and was usedto impart fragrance to the linen in which dead bodies werewrapped, John xix. 40. Heb. Ahalim. Anise, or Dill, occurs only in Matt, xxiii. (avuQcv). It is an herb of smallvalue. Its seeds are aromatic and carminative, yielding an oilmuch used in flatulency. Apple of Scripture is perhaps the quince, which is in the East morehighly scented and much sweeter than in Europe (Cels. Ray); or itmay be the citron, a rich golden-colored fruit, Prov. xxv. 11: Joel
