A precious stone, possibly ruby or carnelian; mentioned in Isaiah 54:12 and Ezekiel 27:16
This masculine noun designates a precious stone, most likely ruby or carnelian, valued for its red sparkle. In Isaiah 54:12 it appears in God's promise to rebuild Zion with precious stones, making her battlements of rubies. In Ezekiel 27:16 it's listed among the luxury goods traded with Tyre. The word has Aramaic cognates (kadkadana), suggesting it was a technical trade term for a specific gemstone in the ancient Near Eastern luxury commerce.
Sentidos
1. sense 1 — Attested in Isaiah 54:12 (Zion's restoration) and Ezekiel 27:16 (Tyre's trade). Both contexts emphasize precious value and beauty. Spanish renders it as "ruby" in both passages, French as "grenade" (garnet), and German preserves the Hebrew form, reflecting the uncertainty about which specific red gemstone the ancient term designated. The Isaiah context particularly emphasizes transformation: God will make Zion's very fortifications out of gems. 2×
