urimn.

Brit.

/ˈjʊərɪm/,

/ˈjɔːrɪm/, U.S.

/ˈ(j)ʊrəm/

Etymology: < Hebrew ūrīm, plural intens., referred to ōr ‘light’, plural ōrīm, and by some taken as = lights, ϕωτισμοί ‘illuminations’ (Symmachus).

a. Certain objects, the nature of which is not known, worn in or upon the ‘breast-plate’ of the Jewish high-priest, by means of which the will of Jehovah was held to be declared.Used chiefly in the collocation Urim and Thummim (once Thummim and Urim), occurring five times in the Old Testament. In the earlier English versions rendered after the Vulgate doctrina et veritas (from the Septuagint δήλωσις καὶ ἀλήθεια), whence Wyclif ‘doctryne [l.v. techyng] and trewthe’; Coverdale has ‘light and perfectnesse’, following Luther's licht und recht, but in the ‘Great’ Bible of 1539 and in later versions the words are left untranslated.
