Bible | Lime The Hebrew word so rendered means "boiling" or "effervescing." From Isa. 33:12 it appears that lime was made in a kiln lighted by thorn-bushes. In Amos 2:1 it is recorded that the king of Moab "burned the bones of the king of Edom into lime." The same Hebrew word is used in Deut. 27:2-4, and is there rendered "plaster." Limestone is the chief constituent of the mountains of Syria. Source: Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary. |

Six small Citrus species known as lime are native to Australia. Five are found only in the rainforests of the north. The sixth, the Desert Lime (Eremocitrus glauca), grows in semi-arid areas of southeastern Australia. Two of the five rainforest limes occur naturally in southeast Queensland - the Finger Lime (Citrus australasica) and a small round lime known as the Gympie Lime (Citrus australis) and called Dooja by the Aborigines.Source: adapted by the editor from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia under a copyleft GNU Free Documentation License (GFDL) from the article "Australian lime."
(From Wikipedia, the free Encyclopedia)
Calcium oxide (CaO), commonly known as lime or quicklime, is a widely used chemical compound. It is a white, caustic and alkaline crystalline solid. As a commercial product lime often also contains magnesium oxide, silicon oxide and smaller amounts of aluminium and iron oxides.

Calcium oxide is usually made by the thermal decomposition of CaCO3, heating materials such as limestone to around 500°C and so removing the carbon dioxide in a reversible reaction. It is one of the first chemical reactions discovered by man and was known in prehistory: see limekiln.
As hydrated or slaked lime, Ca(OH)2, it was used in mortar and plaster to increase the rate of hardening. Hydrated lime is very simple to make as lime is a basic anhydride and reacts vigorously with water. Lime was also used in glass production and its ability to work with silicates is also used in modern metal production (steel, magnesium, aluminum and other non-ferrous metals) industries to remove impurities as slag.
It is also used in water and sewage treatment to reduce acidity, to soften, as a flocculant and to remove phosphates and other impurities; in paper making to dissolve lignin, as a coagulant and in bleaching; in agriculture to improve acid soils; and in pollution control - in gas scrubbers to desulphurize waste gases and to treat many liquid effluents. It is a refactory and a dehydrating agent and is used to purify citric acid, glucose, dyes and as a CO2 absorber. It is also used in pottery, concrete, paints and the food industry.

(From Wikipedia, the free Encyclopedia)
Lime (Citrus aurantifolia) is a citrus tree with a fruit that contains a very high level of vitamin C. British sailors were issued a daily allowance of lemon or lime juice to prevent scurvy, giving them the nickname Limey.
Limes are small roundish bright green fruit with a pungent flavour. However, if they stay on the tree for a long time they turn yellow and resemble a small roundish lemon. Lime juice is used in cooking and in soft drinks, cocktails and limeade (like lemonade). Lime extracts and essential oils are frequently used in perfumes, cleansing products, and for aromatherapy.
For other kinds of lime, see Lime.

(From Wikipedia, the free Encyclopedia)
Tilia is a genus of deciduous trees in the family Tiliaceae, found through the north temperate regions. Members include:
The trees are commonly known as lime or sometimes as linden trees, (the latter name especially in the United States, after the German common name for the tree). The modern English name is modified from the medieaval English name line, and the tree is in no way related to the citrus lime fruit.
- American Lime, Tilia americana known in the timber trade as basswood
- Common Lime, Tilia europaea
- Mongolian Lime, Tilia mongolica
- Silver Lime, Tilia tomentosa, Tilia argentea
- Tilia cordata
- Tilia Platiphylos
The tree produces a fragrant and nectar producing blossom, the medicinal herb Lime Blossom. In northern USA, Tilia americana is an important honey plant for beekeepers, producing a water-white honey, that is a bit strong when taken straight, but when blended with mild honey such as clover, has a very agreeable minty taste. It is often labeled "American Linden."

John Locke | 1690 | It would be a strange catalogue of things, that industry provided and made use of, about every loaf of bread, before it came to our use, if we could trace them; iron, wood, leather, bark, timber, stone, bricks, coals, lime, cloth, dying drugs, pitch, tar, masts, ropes, and all the materials made use of in the ship, that brought any of the commodities made use of by any of the workmen, to any part of the work; all which it would be almost impossible, at least too long, to reckon up.
