This word, besides its ordinary and proper use, stands in the English Bible as a mistranslation of two Heb. terms. 1. Matsotr’ , in connection with , streams, rendered in 2Ki 19:24, rivers of besieged places, Sept. , Vulg. aquae clausae; in Isa 19:6, brooks of defense, Sept. , Vulg. rivi aggerum; in Isa 37:25, rivers of the besieged places, Sept. , Vulg. rivi aggerum), a proper name for EGYPT, alluding to its canals, i.e. the branches of the Nile. The derivation of the term is obscure; perhaps it is only another application of the Heb. word of the same form, elsewhere signifying (literally straitness, hence) a mound or fortification, and applied to Egypt, especially Lower Egypt, as being strongly fortified, both by nature and art. SEE MAZOR.<\/p>\n
2. Be’tser (, probably something dug out of a mine, occurring only in Job, and rendered in chap. 22:24, gold, Sept. , Vulg. silex; in Isa 37:25, defense, Sept. , Vulg. contra hostes; in chap. 36:19, gold, Sept. , Vulg. tribulatio), precious ore, i.e. of gold or silver, in its native state; an interpretation evidently required by the corresponding terms in the parallel members of the hemistichs where it occurs. SEE GOLD.<\/p>\n
