<p> <strong> | <p> <strong> [[Parvaim.]] </strong> [[A]] region whence, according to 2 Chronicles 3:6 , the gold was obtained which was used for ornamenting the [[Temple]] of Solomon. The name is most plausibly identified with <em> Farwa </em> in Yemen, or [[S.]] [[W.]] Arabia. It was possibly from this place that the ‘gold of Sheba’ ( Psalms 72:15; cf. Isaiah 60:6 ) was in part derived. </p> <p> [[J.]] [[F.]] M‘Curdy. </p> | ||

<p> (Heb. Parva'yim, פִּרְוִיַם, a dual form from some unknown פִּרְוִי; Sept. Φαρουίμ ), a region producing gold used in adorning, Solomon's Temple (2 Chronicles 3:6). There is very strong reason to conclude with Bochart (Can. 1:46) that it is the same with Ophir. Castell, however (Lexic. Heptagl. col. 3062), identifies it with Barbatia on the Tigris, which is named by Pliny (Hist. Nat. 6:32); and Gesenius, seeking the root of the name in the Sanscrit puriva, "before," i.e. "eastern," concludes it to be a general term, corresponding to our Levant, meaning east country; so that "gold of Parvaim" means Eastern gold (Thesaur. 2:25; so Wilford in the Asiat. Research. 8:276). Knobel conjectures (Volkert. p. 191) that it is an abbreviated form of Sepharvaim, which stands in the Syriac version and the [[Targum]] of Jonathan for the Sephar of Genesis 10:30. Hitzig maintains (on Daniel 10:5) that the name is derived from the Sanscrit parna, "hill," and betokens the δίδυμα ὄρη in Arabia mentioned by Ptolemy (6:7, § 11). </p> | <p> (Heb.

<p> ''''' par ''''' - ''''' vā´im ''''' ( פּרוים , <i> ''''' parwāyim ''''' </i> ; [[Septuagint]] <i> ''''' Pharouaim ''''' </i> ): The word occurs only in 2 Chronicles 3:6 , as the place from which [[Solomon]] obtained gold for the decoration of his Temple. A derivation is given from the Sanskrit <i> '''''pūrva''''' </i> , "eastern," so that the name might be a vague term for the East (Gesenius, <i> Thesaurus </i> , 1125).
