Tabering

an obsolete English word used in the Authorized Version of ( Nahum 2:7 ) The Hebrew word connects itself with toph , "a timbrel." The Authorized Version reproduces the original idea. The "tabour" or "tabor" was a musical instrument of the drum type which with the pipe formed the band of a country village. To "tabour," accordingly, is to beat with loud strokes, as men beat upon such an instrument. [E] indicates this entry was also found in Easton's Bible Dictionary
