THE AMETHYST GEMSTONE IS THE NINTH
STONE IN THE BREASTPLATE OF JUDGEMENT;  
REPRESENTING THE TRIBE OF ASHER
.

"This is the blessing with which Moses the man of God blessed the children of Israel before
his death. He said,
“The Lord came from Sinai, and dawned from Se′ir upon us; he shone
forth from Mount Paran, 
he came from the ten thousands of holy ones, with flaming fire at
his right hand.
​

Yea, he loved his people; all those consecrated to him were in his hand; so they followed in
thy steps, 
receiving direction from thee,when Moses commanded us a law, as a possession
​for the assembly of Jacob.  
Thus the Lord became king in Jesh′urun, 
when the heads of the people were gathered, all the tribes of Israel together.

And of Asher he said,

“Blessed above sons be Asher;
    let him be the favorite of his brothers,
    and let him dip his foot in oil.
Your bars shall be iron and bronze;

    and as your days, so shall your strength be."

[Genesis 33:1-5; 24-25. RSVCE]
