Definition: "Alchemic," in the KJV, translates to "Hebrew." This term originally meant "to alter or transform;" it refers to a process that involves altering materials, especially metals, into new substances. The Hebrew meaning suggests that this technique was used for the creation and alteration of chemical substances. It involved the use of chemicals such as gold, silver, and other metals combined with other elements like water, oxygen, and air to obtain desired properties or qualities, such as hardness, elasticity, or conductivity. In the KJV context, alchemical refers to a practice that involved altering materials into new substances, possibly for purposes of crafting or enhancing the appearance of the material. This is described in Genesis 23:17-19, where Adam and Eve had a conversation with God about creating man from female gametes. The term was most commonly used as an allusion to the Hebrews' connection to alchemical practices. The word "alchemic" also has other meanings within biblical texts, such as describing a person's relationship to gold or silver in Genesis 24:5.
