Definition: In the English King James Version (KJV), "alkyds" means "copper," specifically a type of copper alloy used in metalworking for making tools, swords, and other implements. The term occurs three times in the Bible: 1. In the Book of Genesis: When God says that "I will make a silver serpent out of brass for a sign, saying, I will put my hand on it." (Genesis 7:14) 2. In the Book of Hebrews: When Jesus said "And when he had been with us a little while longer, and saw no sign of him being satisfied in his work, then came down from heaven and said to him, 'Go to another place, let your father see my work' (Hebrews 12:8)." 3. In the Book of Revelation: When John tells God that he "begins to look for his son" after he saw a vision of his son "appearing in heaven; and behold, there was with him a young man like himself," while Satan was trying to stop him from seeing Jesus (Revelation 12:1-5). The term is used metaphorically by God as He watches over His creation, indicating that He has made the world a picture of Him.
