   Gold \Gold\ (g[omac]ld), n. [AS. gold; akin to D. goud, OS. & G.
      gold, Icel. gull, Sw. & Dan. guld, Goth. gul[thorn], Russ. &
      OSlav. zlato; prob. akin to E. yellow. [root]49, 234. 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. Money; riches; wealth.
  
                     For me, the gold of France did not seduce. --Shak.

      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.

From Webster's Revised Unabridged Dictionary (1913) [web1913]:
   Gold \Gold\ (g[omac]ld), n. [AS. gold; akin to D. goud, OS. & G.
      gold, Icel. gull, Sw. & Dan. guld, Goth. gul[thorn], Russ. &
      OSlav. zlato; prob. akin to E. yellow. [root]49, 234. 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. Money; riches; wealth.
  
                     For me, the gold of France did not seduce. --Shak.
  
      3. A yellow color, like that of the metal; as, a flower

From The Elements (22Oct97) [elements]:
   gold
   Symbol: Au
   Atomic number: 79
   Atomic weight: 196.96655
   Gold is gold colored. It is the most malleable and ductile metal known.
   There is only one stable isotope of gold, and five radioisotopes of gold,
   Au-195 being the most stable with a half-life of 186 days. Gold is used
   as a monetary standard, in jewelry, dentistry, electronics. Au-198 is used
   in treating cancer and some other medical conditions. Gold has been known
   to exist as far back as 2600 BC. Gold comes from the Anglo-Saxon word gold.
   Its symbol, Au, comes from the Latin word aurum, which means gold. Gold is
   not particularly toxic, however it is known to cause damage to the liver
   and kidneys in some.
  
  

From Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary [easton]:
   Galatia
      has been called the "Gallia" of the East, Roman writers calling
      its inhabitants Galli. They were an intermixture of Gauls and
      Greeks, and hence were called Gallo-Graeci, and the country
      Gallo-Graecia. The Galatians were in their origin a part of that
      great Celtic migration which invaded Macedonia about B.C. 280.
      They were invited by the king of Bithynia to cross over into
      Asia Minor to assist him in his wars. There they ultimately
      settled, and being strengthened by fresh accessions of the same
      clan from Europe, they overran Bithynia, and supported
      themselves by plundering neighbouring countries. They were great
      warriors, and hired themselves out as mercenary soldiers,
      sometimes fighting on both sides in the great battles of the
      times. They were at length brought under the power of Rome in
      B.C. 189, and Galatia became a Roman province B.C. 25.
     
         This province of Galatia, within the limits of which these
      Celtic tribes were confined, was the central region of Asia
      Minor.
     
         During his second missionary journey Paul, accompanied by
      Silas and Timothy (Acts 16:6), visited the "region of Galatia,"
      where he was detained by sickness (Gal. 4:13), and had thus the
      longer opportunity of preaching to them the gospel. On his third
      journey he went over "all the country of Galatia and Phrygia in
      order" (Acts 18:23). Crescens was sent thither by Paul toward
      the close of his life (2 Tim. 4:10).
     

From Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary [easton]:
   Galeed
      heap of witness, the name of the pile of stones erected by Jacob
      and Laban to mark the league of friendship into which they
      entered with each other (Gen. 31:47, 48). This was the name
      given to the "heap" by Jacob. It is Hebrew, while the name
      Jegar-sahadutha, given to it by Laban, is Aramaic (Chaldee or
      Syriac). Probably Nahor's family originally spoke Aramaic, and
      Abraham and his descendants learned Hebrew, a kindred dialect,
      in the land of Canaan.
     

From Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary [easton]:
   Gilead
      hill of testimony, (Gen. 31:21), a mountainous region east of
      Jordan. From its mountainous character it is called "the mount
      of Gilead" (Gen. 31:25). It is called also "the land of Gilead"
      (Num. 32:1), and sometimes simply "Gilead" (Ps. 60:7; Gen.
      37:25). It comprised the possessions of the tribes of Gad and
      Reuben and the south part of Manasseh (Deut. 3:13; Num. 32:40).
      It was bounded on the north by Bashan, and on the south by Moab
      and Ammon (Gen. 31:21; Deut. 3:12-17). "Half Gilead" was
      possessed by Sihon, and the other half, separated from it by the
      river Jabbok, by Og, king of Bashan. The deep ravine of the
      river Hieromax (the modern Sheriat el-Mandhur) separated Bashan
      from Gilead, which was about 60 miles in length and 20 in
      breadth, extending from near the south end of the Lake of
      Gennesaret to the north end of the Dead Sea. Abarim, Pisgah,
      Nebo, and Peor are its mountains mentioned in Scripture.
     

From Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary [easton]:
   Glede
      an Old English name for the common kite, mentioned only in Deut.
      14:13 (Heb. ra'ah), the Milvus ater or black kite. The Hebrew
      word does not occur in the parallel passage in Leviticus (11:14,
      da'ah, rendered "vulture;" in R.V., "kite"). It was an unclean
      bird. The Hebrew name is from a root meaning "to see," "to
      look," thus designating a bird with a keen sight. The bird
      intended is probably the buzzard, of which there are three
      species found in Palestine. (See {VULTURE}.)
     

From Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary [easton]:
   Gold
      (1.) Heb. zahab, so called from its yellow colour (Ex. 25:11; 1
      Chr. 28:18; 2 Chr. 3:5).
     
         (2.) Heb. segor, from its compactness, or as being enclosed or
      treasured up; thus precious or "fine gold" (1 Kings 6:20; 7:49).
     
         (3.) Heb. paz, native or pure gold (Job 28:17; Ps. 19:10;
      21:3, etc.).
     
         (4.) Heb. betzer, "ore of gold or silver" as dug out of the
      mine (Job 36:19, where it means simply riches).
     
         (5.) Heb. kethem, i.e., something concealed or separated (Job
      28:16,19; Ps. 45:9; Prov. 25:12). Rendered "golden wedge" in
      Isa. 13:12.
     
         (6.) Heb. haruts, i.e., dug out; poetic for gold (Prov. 8:10;
      16:16; Zech. 9:3).
     
         Gold was known from the earliest times (Gen. 2:11). It was
      principally used for ornaments (Gen. 24:22). It was very
      abundant (1 Chr. 22:14; Nah. 2:9; Dan. 3:1). Many tons of it
      were used in connection with the temple (2 Chr. 1:15). It was
      found in Arabia, Sheba, and Ophir (1 Kings 9:28; 10:1; Job
      28:16), but not in Palestine.
     
         In Dan. 2:38, the Babylonian Empire is spoken of as a "head of
      gold" because of its great riches; and Babylon was called by
      Isaiah (14:4) the "golden city" (R.V. marg., "exactress,"
      adopting the reading _marhebah_, instead of the usual word
      _madhebah_).
     

From Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary [easton]:
   Goliath
      great. (1.) A famous giant of Gath, who for forty days openly
      defied the armies of Israel, but was at length slain by David
      with a stone from a sling (1 Sam. 17:4). He was probably
      descended from the Rephaim who found refuge among the
      Philistines after they were dispersed by the Ammonites (Deut.
      2:20, 21). His height was "six cubits and a span," which, taking
      the cubit at 21 inches, is equal to 10 1/2 feet. David cut off
      his head (1 Sam. 17:51) and brought it to Jerusalem, while he
      hung the armour which he took from him in his tent. His sword
      was preserved at Nob as a religious trophy (21:9). David's
      victory over Goliath was the turning point in his life. He came
      into public notice now as the deliverer of Israel and the chief
      among Saul's men of war (18:5), and the devoted friend of
      Jonathan.
     
         (2.) In 2 Sam. 21:19 there is another giant of the same name
      mentioned as slain by Elhanan. The staff of his apear "was like
      a weaver's beam." The Authorized Version interpolates the words
      "the brother of" from 1 Chr. 20:5, where this giant is called
      Lahmi.
