AGATE - A>@ - a beautifully-veined semi-transparent precious stone, a variety of quartz. Its colors are delicately arranged in stripes or bands or blended in clouds. It is mentioned four times in the text of the Authorized Version, viz., in kjv@Exodus:28:19 kjv@Exodus:39:12; kjv@Isaiah:54:12; kjv@Ezekiel:27:16) In the two former passages; where it is represented by the Hebrew word shebo it is spoken of as forming the second stone in the third row of the high priest’s breastplate; in each of the two latter places the original word is cadced , by which, no doubt, is intended a different stone. RUBY Our English agate derives its name from the Achates, on the banks of which it was first found.

Agate @ (Heb. shebo), a precious stone in the breast-plate of the high priest kjv@Exodus:28:19 kjv@Exodus:39:12), the second in the third row. This may be the agate properly so called, a semi-transparent crystallized quartz, probably brought from Sheba, whence its name. In kjv@Isaiah:54:12 and kjv@Ezekiel:27:16, this word is the rendering of the Hebrew cadcod, which means "ruddy," and denotes a variety of minutely crystalline silica more or less in bands of different tints. This word is from the Greek name of a stone found in the river Achates in Sicily.
