Matthew Poole and continuators on Job 28:17

17. The gold and the crystal cannot equal it: and the exchange of it shall not be for jewels of fine gold.

Or Amber, which in those parts was of very great price. Or, the Diamond. The Hebrew word is not elsewhere used, and it hath in it the signification of purity, or clearness, or brightness.

Or, vessels, wherein there is not only the excellency of the materials, but the curiosity of art, which renders the other much more valuable.

Marginal references: Or, vessels of [illegible: 1 word] gold.
