Amethyst one of the precious stones in the breastplate of the high priest (
Ex .
28 :
19 ;
39 :
12 ),
and in the foundation of the New Jerusalem (
Rev .
21 :
20 ).
The ancients thought that this stone had the power of dispelling drunkenness in all who wore or touched it ,
and hence its Greek name formed from _a_ , "
privative ,"
and _methuo_ ,
"
to get drunk ."
Its Jewish name ,
_ahlamah '
_ ,
was derived by the rabbins from the Hebrew word _halam_ , "
to dream ,"
from its supposed power of causing the wearer to dream .
It is a pale -
blue crystallized quartz ,
varying to a dark purple blue .
It is found in Persia and India ,
also in different parts of Europe .
