DIAMOND
Ex 28:18, 39:11, Jer 17:1, Ezek 28:13
Diamonds are the most highly prized gemstones in the world, mostly due to their many qualities and few weaknesses. Diamonds are pure elemental carbon. They are the hardest of all gemstones. The diamond has the highest melting point of any substance (3,820 degrees Kelvin), is an excellent heat conductor, and has very low reactivity to chemicals. Diamonds are made of carbon - the most common substance on earth - formed deep within the earth under extreme heat and pressure. The English word “diamond” comes from the Greek word adamas meaning “the invincible.” Only the KJV uses the term diamond in its translation (see scripture references above). The diamond was probably not true identity of these stones because the diamond was not identified in the Mediterranean lands until the first century AD, and then it was not valued for it’s beauty as a decorative gemstone, but for it’s use as a tool for carving other stones due to it’s hardness. The first definite reference to it is found in the Latin poetry of Manilius about 12 AD, and Elder Pliny describes diamond crystals from India about 77 AD.
