What is Coral?
COR'AL
, Eze 27:16, was an article of Tyrian merchandise, and is well known as a marine production, found in almost every variety of shape and size, and sometimes increasing to such an extent as to form the basis of islands, or to stretch out in dangerous reefs for many miles. It is capable of being worked up into beads and other ornaments; for which use the red species is the most valuable. Job mentions it in connection with pearls. Job 28:18.
