What is the path to the JRE file?

Question

I am looking for the path the the JRE file on Mac OS X 10.6.8. Or is there no such file? Is JRE just slang for an idea or concept? Java Runtime Environment is a real thing.

Does it have a file? I am installing something that asks for the path to the JRE file http://www.boonex.com/trac/dolphin/wiki/RayMediaServerInstallation

In Mac you can find Java JRE's installed in the following folders

/Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/

Example /Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/jdk1.8.0_45.jdk/Contents/Home.
