Excerpt from Biblical Natural Science, Vol. 2: Being the Explanation of All References in Holy Scripture to Geology, Botany, Zoology, and Physical Geography These references are all we have to enable us to identify the plant named here. It has been too hastily assumed that it must have been the true paper reed, or papyrus, for which Egypt in ancient times was celebrated. It is indeed true, that one of the passages quoted from Isaiah is clear on the point, that it was often used for this purpose, and that the notices of it which occur in profane authors point to the same fact. But this does not determine the matter. We know from Herodotus that sandals were frequently made from it, but this does not warrant the inference that all sandals were made from this material. The only conclusion to which in the circumstances we can come is, that under the term bulrush (cyperus) any description suitable for this purpose may be referred to, and that under the term flags different sorts of reed - mace (typlza) are indicated.
