Finite Impulse Response ( DSP) Fir the uniform rendering in the Authorized Version ( marg. R. V., " cypress") of _berosh_ ( 2 Sam. 6: 5; 1 Kings 5: 8, 10; 6: 15, 34; 9: 11, etc.), a lofty tree ( Isa. 55: 13) growing on Lebanon ( 37: 24). Its wood was used in making musical instruments and doors of houses, and for ceilings ( 2 Chr. 3: 5), the decks of ships ( Ezek. 27: 5), floorings and spear- shafts ( Nah. 2: 3, R. V.). The true fir ( abies) is not found in Palestine, but the pine tree, of which there are four species, is common. The precise kind of tree meant by the " green fir tree" ( Hos. 14: 8) is uncertain. Some regard it as the sherbin tree, a cypress resembling the cedar; others, the Aleppo or maritime pine ( Pinus halepensis), which resembles the Scotch fir; while others think that the " stone- pine" ( Pinus pinea) is probably meant. ( See { PINE}.)
