2 Chronicles 2:8

fir trees R.V. mg., cypress trees(which however are not now indigenous on Lebanon).

algum trees called almug treesin 1 Kings 10:11-12 and there described as coming from Ophir. According to 1 Kings 5:8 Solomon asked for cedar and "fir" only; so that the mention of algum trees here is probably incorrect. Algumis perhaps sandal wood.
