Watson's Biblical & Theological Dictionary [1]

תאשור ,  Isaiah 41:9;  Isaiah 60:13;  Ezekiel 27:6;  2 Esdras 14:24 , where the word appears to be used for tablets. Most of the ancient, and several of the modern, translators, render this word the buxus, or "box tree;" but from its being mentioned along with trees of the forest, some more stately tree must be intended, probably the cedar.

People's Dictionary of the Bible [2]

Box Tree.  Isaiah 41:19. A small evergreen tree, either the same with or closely resembling the shrubby box of our gardens.

Holman Bible Dictionary [3]

 Isaiah 41:19 Isaiah 60:13 Isaiah 41:20
