TSNTyndale Study Notes:

2:12 The magnificence and fertility of the garden are pictured as spreading to the surrounding regions through the rivers flowing out from it. The four rivers possibly imply that the garden’s bounty flowed out to the four corners of the earth.
• Gold and onyx were later used for decorating the Tabernacle, the Temple (Exod 25:3-9; 1 Chr 29:2), and the priests’ clothing (Exod 28:9-14, 20).
• Resin was used in sacred incense (Exod 30:34).


UTNuW Translation Notes:

וּֽ⁠זֲהַ֛ב הָ⁠אָ֥רֶץ הַ⁠הִ֖וא

and=gold_of the=earth/land the=that

This sentence emphasizes the previous statement about the gold and gives more information about it. Alternate translation: “In fact, the gold from that land” or “Indeed, the gold that is found in that land”

ט֑וֹב

good

Alternate translation: “is very pure.” or “is very high quality.”

Note 1 topic: translate-unknown

הַ⁠בְּדֹ֖לַח

the=bdellium

The meaning of this Hebrew word is not certain. In many translations it is transliterated, that is, spelled the way the Hebrew word is pronounced. It may refer to: (1) a fragrant/sweet-smelling tree resin that was used to make perfume; or (2) a type of stone or crystal, or possibly pearl. Alternate translation: “A kind of sweet-smelling resin called bdellium” or “A kind of fragrant perfume”

Note 2 topic: translate-unknown

וְ⁠אֶ֥בֶן הַ⁠שֹּֽׁהַם

and=stone_of the=onyx/beryl

It is not certain what kind of stone this was, but most Bible scholars think it was onyx, which is a kind of quartz that is often black, but also occurs in many other colors, and can have stripes or bands of white (or other colors) running through it. Alternate translation: “and valuable stones called onyx” or “and valuable gemstones”

שָׁ֥ם

there

Make sure the verb tense you choose here fits with the way you translated verse 11. Alternate translation: “are also found there.” or “are also in that land”
