See       {Yellow}, and cf. {Gild}, v. t.]       1. (Chem.) A metallic element, constituting the most precious             metal used as a common commercial medium of exchange. It             has a characteristic yellow color, is one of the heaviest             substances known (specific gravity 19.32), is soft, and             very malleable and ductile. It is quite unalterable by             heat, moisture, and most corrosive agents, and therefore             well suited for its use in coin and jewelry. Symbol Au             (Aurum). Atomic weight 196.7.          Note: Native gold contains usually eight to ten per cent of                silver, but often much more. As the amount of silver                increases, the color becomes whiter and the specific                gravity lower. Gold is very widely disseminated, as in                the sands of many rivers, but in very small quantity.                It usually occurs in quartz veins (gold quartz), in                slate and metamorphic rocks, or in sand and alluvial                soil, resulting from the disintegration of such rocks.                It also occurs associated with other metallic                substances, as in auriferous pyrites, and is combined                with tellurium in the minerals petzite, calaverite,                sylvanite, etc. Pure gold is too soft for ordinary use,                and is hardened by alloying with silver and copper, the                latter giving a characteristic reddish tinge. [See                {Carat}.] Gold also finds use in gold foil, in the                pigment purple of Cassius, and in the chloride, which                is used as a toning agent in photography.          2.

From Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary [easton]:
Commandments, the Ten       (Ex. 34:28; Deut. 10:4, marg. "ten words") i.e., the Decalogue       (q.v.), is a summary of the immutable moral law. These       commandments were first given in their written form to the       people of Israel when they were encamped at Sinai, about fifty       days after they came out of Egypt (Ex. 19:10-25). They were       written by the finger of God on two tables of stone. The first       tables were broken by Moses when he brought them down from the       mount (32:19), being thrown by him on the ground. At the command       of God he took up into the mount two other tables, and God wrote       on them "the words that were on the first tables" (34:1). These       tables were afterwards placed in the ark of the covenant (Deut.       10:5; 1 Kings 8:9). Their subsequent history is unknown. They       are as a whole called "the covenant" (Deut. 4:13), and "the       tables of the covenant" (9:9, 11; Heb. 9:4), and "the       testimony."                They are obviously "ten" in number, but their division is not       fixed, hence different methods of numbering them have been       adopted. The Jews make the "Preface" one of the commandments,       and then combine the first and second. The Roman Catholics and       Lutherans combine the first and second and divide the tenth into       two. The Jews and Josephus divide them equally. The Lutherans       and Roman Catholics refer three commandments to the first table       and seven to the second. The Greek and Reformed Churches refer       four to the first and six to the second table. The Samaritans       add to the second that Gerizim is the mount of worship. (See {LAW}.)
From Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary [easton]:
Sea, The molten       the great laver made by Solomon for the use of the priests in       the temple, described in 1 Kings 7:23-26; 2 Chr. 4:2-5. It stood       in the south-eastern corner of the inner court. It was 5 cubits       high, 10 in diameter from brim to brim, and 30 in circumference.       It was placed on the backs of twelve oxen, standing with their       faces outward. It was capable of containing two or three       thousand baths of water (comp. 2 Chr. 4:5), which was originally       supplied by the Gibeonites, but was afterwards brought by a       conduit from the pools of Bethlehem. It was made of "brass"       (copper), which Solomon had taken from the captured cities of       Hadarezer, the king of Zobah (1 Chr. 18:8). Ahaz afterwards       removed this laver from the oxen, and placed it on a stone       pavement (2 Kings 16:17). It was destroyed by the Chaldeans       (25:13).
