Easton's Bible Dictionary
Gopher
A tree from the wood of which Noah was directed to build the ark (Genesis 6:14). It is mentioned only there. The LXX. render this word by "squared beams," and the Vulgate by "planed wood." Other versions have rendered it "pine" and "cedar;" but the weight of authority is in favour of understanding by it the cypress tree, which grows abundantly in Chaldea and Armenia.
Smith's Bible Dictionary
Gopher
(pitch) wood. Only once mentioned
(Genesis 6:14) Two principal conjectures have been proposed
- That the "trees of gopher" are any trees of the resinous kind, such as pine, fir, etc.
- That Gopher is cypress.
