Paper
The
expression
in
the
Authorized
Version
(
Isa
. 19:7), "
the
paper
reeds
by
the
brooks
,"
is
in
the
Revised
Version
more
correctly
"
the
meadows
by
the
Nile
."
The
words
undoubtedly
refer
to
a
grassy
place
on
the
banks
of
the
Nile
fit
for
pasturage
.
In
2
John
1:12
the
word
is
used
in
its
proper
sense
.
The
material
so
referred
to
was
manufactured
from
the
papyrus
,
and
hence
its
name
.
The
papyrus
(
Heb
.
gome
)
was
a
kind
of
bulrush
(q.v.).
It
is
mentioned
by
Job
(8:11)
and
Isaiah
(35:7).
It
was
used
for
many
purposes
.
This
plant
(
Papyrus
Nilotica
)
is
now
unknown
in
Egypt
;
no
trace
of
it
can
be
found
.
The
unaccountable
disappearance
of
this
plant
from
Egypt
was
foretold
by
Isaiah
(19:6, 7)
as
a
part
of
the
divine
judgment
on
that
land
.
The
most
extensive
papyrus
growths
now
known
are
in
the
marshes
at
the
northern
end
of
the
lake
of
Merom
.
