1 Kings 9:13 (King James Version)
And he said, What cities are these which thou hast given me, my brother? And he called them the land of Cabul unto this day.
- my brother
- 1 Kings 5:1 1 Kings 5:2 Amos 1:9
- Cabul
- that is, Displeasing, or dirty.
- Josephus says that {Cabul,} in the Phoenician language, signifies [ouk areskon,] displeasing; and that these cities were situated in the neighbourhood of Tyre. Most commentators are persuaded that the city Cabul in the tribe of Asher was one; and probably from this Hiram took occasion to give this name to all the other cities which Solomon had ceded to him.
- Joshua 19:27
