Bench
(, keresh): Found only in English Versions of the Bible in Eze 27:6, in the prophet’s lamentation over Tyre: They have made thy benches of ivory inlaid in boxwood, from the isles of Kittim, where the word evidently stands for the benches of the boat whose mast (Eze 27:5) and oars (Eze 27:6) have just been described, in the vivid figs. of speech in which the city itself is pictured as a merchantship. Compare Eze 27:8, Thy wise men, O Tyre, were in thee, they were thy pilots. See SEAT.
