beryl

the King James Version translation of the Hebrew word tarshish, a precious stone; probably so called as being brought from Tarshish

It was one of the stones on the breastplate of the high priest (Exodus 28:20; Revised King James Version marginal note, “chalcedony;” 39:13).

The color of the wheels in Ezekiel’s vision was as the color of a beryl stone (1:16; 10:9; Revised King James Version, “stone of Tarshish”).

It is mentioned in Song of Songs 5:14; Dan. 10:6; Rev. 21:20.

In Ezek. 28:13 the Septuagint render the word by “chrysolite,” which the Jewish historian Josephus regards as its proper translation. This also is the rendering given in the King James Version in the margin. That was a gold-colored gem, the topaz of ancient authors.

Beryl is mentioned in the foundations of the coming New Jerusalem.

The foundation stones of the city wall were adorned with every kind of precious stone. The first foundation stone was jasper; the second, sapphire; the third, chalcedony; the fourth, emerald; the fifth, sardonyx; the sixth, sardius; the seventh, chrysolite; the eighth, beryl; the ninth, topaz; the tenth, chrysoprase; the eleventh, jacinth; the twelfth, amethyst. … Revelation 21:19-21 LSB excerpt
