Kebar
Kirjeldus
Jõgi Kaldea maal [Hs 1:3 ], kus viibisid mõned iisraellased vangipõlve ajal ja kus Hesekielil oli mitu olulist nägemust [Hs 1:1 ; Hs 3:15 ,23; Hs 10:15 ,20]. Ch. samastatakse tavaliselt *Habori või *Goosaniga, kus viibis ka osa vangidest [2Kn 17:6 ]. See on pelgalt oletus. Hesekieli Ch. on mõnede arvates Naru Malcha, suurim Nabukadnetsari kuninglik kanal, mis asub Babylonist kagus.

Chebar
length, a river in the "land of the Chaldeans" (Ezek 1:3), on the banks of which were located some of the Jews of the Captivity (Ezek 1:1; 3:15; 3:23; 10:15; 10:20; 10:22). It has been supposed to be identical with the river Habor, the Chaboras, or modern Khabour, which falls into the Euphrates at Circesium. To the banks of this river some of the Israelites were removed by the Assyrians (2Kings 17:6). An opinion that has much to support it is that the "Chebar" was the royal canal of Nebuchadnezzar, the Nahr Malcha, the greatest in Mesopotamia, which connected the Tigris with the Euphrates, in the excavation of which the Jewish captives were probably employed.
