IVORY - I>@ - The word translated "ivory" literally signifies the "tooth" of any animal, and hence more especially denotes the substance of the projecting tusks of elephants. The skilled work-men of Hiram, king of Tyre, fashioned the great ivory throne of Solomon, and overlaid it with pure gold. (Kings:10:18; kjv@2Chronicles:9:17) The ivory thus employed was supplied by the caravans of Dedan, kjv@Isaiah:21:13; kjv@Ezekiel:27:15) or was brought, with apes and peacocks, by the navy of Tarshish. (Kings:10:22) The "ivory house" of Ahab, (Kings:22:39) was probably a palace, the walls of which were panelled with ivory, like the palace of Menelaus described by Homer. Odys. kjv@4:73. Beds inlaid or veneered with ivory were in use among the Hebrews. kjv@Amos:6:4)

Ivory @ (Heb. pl. shenhabbim, the "tusks of elephants") was early used in decorations by the Egyptians, and a great trade in it was carried on by the Assyrians kjv@Ezekiel:27:6; kjv@Revelation:18:12). It was used by the Phoenicians to ornament the box-wood rowing-benches of their galleys, and Hiram's skilled workmen made Solomon's throne of ivory (kjvKings:10:18). It was brought by the caravans of Dedan kjv@Isaiah:21:13), and from the East Indies by the navy of Tarshish (kjvKings:10:22). Many specimens of ancient Egyptian and Assyrian ivory-work have been preserved. The word habbim is derived from the Sanscrit ibhas, meaning "elephant," preceded by the Hebrew article (ha); and hence it is argued that Ophir, from which it and the other articles mentioned in kjvKings:10:22 were brought, was in India.
