PINE TREE . 1 . ‘çts-shemen , Nehemiah 8:15 , see Oil Tree. 2 . tidhâr . Isaiah 41:19 [RVm [Note: Revised Version margin.] ‘plane’] 60:13. From similarity to the Syr. daddâr (‘elm’), the tidhâr has been supposed to be the elm, but quite as probably may have been a kind of pine; of these the two common varieties known in Syria are the Aleppo or maritime ( Pinus halepensis ), and the stone ( P. pinea ) with its umbrella-like top.
