Joshua 13:5 (King James Version)
And the land of the Giblites, and all Lebanon, toward the sunrising, from Baalgad under mount Hermon unto the entering into Hamath.
- Giblites
- Probably the inhabitants of the country, around Gebal, ( Ezekiel 27:9, ,)or Byblos, as the LXX. render, a city of Phoenicia,

Its walls are about a mile in circumference, with square towers about every forty yards' distance. Anciently it must have been a place of no mean extent and of considerable beauty, from the ruins still visible. 1 Kings 5:18 ; *marg:
