The Sword of Gilead & The Book of Angels

                    The  term  oriental  chrysolite  was  used  to
            refer  to  yellowish-green  sapphire  and  Ceylon
            chrysolite  to  olive-green  tourmaline.  There  were
            also  terms  like  Saxon  chrysolite  (greenish-yellow
            topaz),  cape  chrysolite  (prehnite)  and  false
            chrysolite (moldavite).
                    Chrysolite is mentioned numerous times in
            the  Bible,  in  the  list  of  gemstones  set  in  the
            breastplate of Aaron (book of Exodus), as well as in
            the  list  of  foundation  stones  for  the  New
            Jerusalem  (in  Revelation).  Many  of  the  gemstone
            references used in the Bible to refer to stones of a
            particular colour rather than specific minerals.
                    If  you  look  at  these  jewels,  you  will  be
            amazed  at  the  variety  and  beauty,  and  having
            done  so,  imagine  a  living  body  made  of  that
            variety of topaz, and that is not all. Now, imagine
            the  brightest  white  linen  garment  glowing  with
            purity  and  place  it  over  his  body  of  beautiful
            Topaz  glowing  with  light  coming  through  it  in
            various  colours,  and  then  placing  a  belt  around
            the  waist  glowing  with  the  purest  gold  you  can
            imagine.
                    Already  one  would  be  in  awe  of  this
            beauty, and yet, there is his face. Can you imagine
            lightening? Not  just  a flash, but  also a perpetual
            white  electric  explosion  of  light,  constant  and
            flashing,  and  then,  imagine  a  bright  electric  fire
            that also has the essence of light  shining as eyes
