<p></p> <p><b>New page</b></p><div><br /> <br /> The expression in the Authorized Version (Isa. 19:7), &quot;the paper reeds by the brooks,&quot; is in the Revised Version more correctly &quot;the meadows by the Nile.&quot; The words undoubtedly refer to a grassy place on the banks of the Nile fit for pasturage.<br /> <br /> In 2 John 1:12 the word is used in its proper sense. The material so referred to was manufactured from the papyrus, and hence its name. The papyrus (Heb. gome) was a kind of bulrush (q.v.). It is mentioned by Job (8:11) and Isaiah (35:7). It was used for many purposes. This plant (Papyrus Nilotica) is now unknown in Egypt; no trace of it can be found. The unaccountable disappearance of this plant from Egypt was foretold by Isaiah (19:6, 7) as a part of the divine judgment on that land. The most extensive papyrus growths now known are in the marshes at the northern end of the lake of Merom.<br /> {{returnto}} [[Easton's Bible Dictionary]]</div>
