Mason
Easton, 1897
An artificer in stone. The Tyrians seem to have been specially skilled in architecture (1 Kings 5:17, 1 Kings 5:18; 2 Samuel 5:11). This art the Hebrews no doubt learned in Egypt (Exodus 1:11, Exodus 1:14), where ruins of temples and palaces fill the traveller with wonder at the present day.
