Kebar
Beskrivelse
elv i kaldeernes land [Esek 1:3 ], hvor noen israelitter ble plassert under fangenskapet, og hvor Esekiel hadde flere betydningsfulle syn [Esek 1:1 ; Esek 3:15 , 23; Esek 10:15 , 20]. Ch. blir vanligvis identifisert med *Khabur eller *Gozan, hvor det også var en del av fangene [2Kong 17:6 ]. Dette er kun en antagelse. Esekiels Ch. er ifølge noen Naru Malcha, den største kongelige kanalen til Nebukadnesar sørøst for byen Babylon.

Chebar
length, a river in the "land of the Chaldeans" [Esek 1:3 ], on the banks of which were located some of the Jews of the Captivity [Esek 1:1 ; Esek 3:15 ; Esek 3:23 ; Esek 10:15 ; Esek 10:20 ; Esek 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 [2Kong 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.
