RBT Hebrew Literal:
and the What is He (Manna) like a seed Fortune (Gad) Himself and his eye like the eye the Bedolach
RBT Paraphrase:
And the What is He ("Manna") is like a coriander seed of Himself, and his eye like the eye of the Bedolach.
And the What is He ("Manna") is like a coriander seed of Himself, and his eye like the eye of the Bedolach.
Coriander Seed
The coriander fruit is technically a schizocarp, which means it splits at maturity into two separate one-seeded halves called mericarps. Each mericarp contains one seed. So when you look inside the whole coriander fruit before it splits, it consists of two fused parts, each holding a seed.
Julia Smith Literal 1876 Translation:
And the manna it as the seed of coriander, and its eye as the eye of bdellium.
And the manna it as the seed of coriander, and its eye as the eye of bdellium.
LITV Translation:
And the manna was like coriander seed, and its look like the look of bdellium resin gum.

ESV Translation:

Brenton Septuagint Translation:
