which generally denotes {ice}, doubtless here signifies crystal, [], from [], cold, ice, and [], to concrete,) as it is rendered by the LXX and Vulgate. It is a very large class of silicious minerals, hard, pellucid, naturally colourless, of regularly angular figures, and of simple plates; not flexible, not elastic, but giving fire with steel; not fermenting by acid menstura, but calcinable in a strong fire. There are three orders of pure crystal: the first is perfect columnar crystals, with double pyramids, of eighteen planes, in an hexangular pyramid at each end; the second is that of perfect crystals, with single pyramids, of ten or twelve planes, in an hexangular or pentangular column. [Terrible crystal] seems to denote that which was well cut and polished, vividly refracting the rays of light.</p><div class="vheading2">Links</div><a href="/ezekiel/1-22.htm">Ezekiel 1:22</a> • <a href="/niv/ezekiel/1-22.htm">Ezekiel 1:22 NIV</a> • <a href="/nlt/ezekiel/1-22.htm">Ezekiel 1:22 NLT</a> • <a href="/esv/ezekiel/1-22.htm">Ezekiel 1:22 ESV</a> • <a href="/nasb/ezekiel/1-22.htm">Ezekiel 1:22 NASB</a> • <a href="/kjv/ezekiel/1-22.htm">Ezekiel 1:22 KJV</a> • <a href="//bibleapps.com/ezekiel/1-22.htm">Ezekiel 1:22 Bible Apps</a> • <a href="//bibliaparalela.com/ezekiel/1-22.htm">Ezekiel 1:22 Biblia Paralela</a> • <a href="//holybible.com.cn/ezekiel/1-22.htm">Ezekiel 1:22 Chinese Bible</a> • <a href="//saintebible.com/ezekiel/1-22.htm">Ezekiel 1:22 French Bible</a> • <a href="//bibeltext.com/ezekiel/1-22.htm">Ezekiel 1:22 German Bible</a> • <a href="/">Bible Hub</a><br /></div></div></td></tr></table></div><div id="left"><a href="../ezekiel/1-21.htm" onmouseover='lft.src="/leftgif.png"' onmouseout='lft.src="/left.png"' title="Ezekiel 1:21"><img src="/left.png" name="lft" border="0" alt="Ezekiel 1:21" /></a></div><div id="right"><a href="../ezekiel/1-23.htm" onmouseover='rght.src="/rightgif.png"' onmouseout='rght.src="/right.png"' title="Ezekiel 1:23"><img src="/right.png" name="rght" border="0" alt="Ezekiel 1:23" /></a></div><div id="botleft"><a href="#" onmouseover='botleft.src="/botleftgif.png"' onmouseout='botleft.src="/botleft.png"' title="Top of Page"><img src="/botleft.png" name="botleft" border="0" alt="Top of Page" /></a></div><div id="botright"><a href="#" onmouseover='botright.src="/botrightgif.png"' onmouseout='botright.src="/botright.png"' title="Top of Page"><img src="/botright.png" name="botright" border="0" alt="Top of Page" /></a></div> <div id="bot"><iframe width="100%" height="1500" scrolling="no" src="/botmenubhnew2.htm" frameborder="0"></iframe></div></td></tr></table></div></body></html>
