Dazzling Diamonds

Ponder the contrast.

Pet owners believe that a dog is man's best friend. It's said that diamonds are a girl's best friend.

Diamonds make poor company if in need of company and consoling.

As a token of his enduring love, an admirer or spouse gives his best girl a diamond ring. The act far outweighs the carrot weight of that diamond.

Are diamonds mentioned in the Bible?

Yes, but the times are few. That gives me the impression that they do not carry much weight with God.

In one instance, a diamond is used as a writing instrument

"The sin of Judah is written with a pen of iron, and with the point of a diamond: it is graven upon the table of their heart, and upon the horns of your altars (Jeremiah 17:1 KJV)."

Note another contrast. A diamond, which dazzles in the light, recorded the darkness of sin.

"And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil.

For every one that doeth evil hateth the light, neither cometh to the light, lest his deeds should be reproved (John 3:19-20 KJV)."
