Easton's Bible Dictionary
Parvaim
The name of a country from which Solomon obtained gold for the temple (2 Chronicles 3:6). Some have identified it with Ophir, but it is uncertain whether it is even the name of a place. It may simply, as some think, denote "Oriental regions."

Smith's Bible Dictionary
Parvaim
(Oriental regions), the name of an unknown place or country whence the gold was procured for the decoration of Solomon's temple. (2 Chronicles 3:6) We may notice the conjecture that it is derived from the Sanscrit purva , "eastern," and is a general term for the east.
