Arbonai

VIEW:54 DATA:01-04-2020
ARBONAI (Jdt_2:24).—A torrent apparently near Cilicia. It cannot be represented by the modern Nahr Ibrahîm, since the ancient name of that river was the Adonis.
Hastings' Dictionary of the Bible
Edited by James Hastings, D.D. Published in 1909


ar-bō?nai, ar-bō?nā̇-ı̄ (Ἀβρωνᾶ, Abrōná): A torrent mentioned in Judith 2:24. Beyond what is indicated in this passage, it is not possible to determine the location; but from this it appears to have been near Cilicia. Identification with the modern Nahr Ibrahim is rejected on the ground (1) that the ancient name of this river was Adonis, and (2) that this does not answer to the term ?torrent? applied by Judith. A possible misreading of ?the high cities that were בעבר הנהר, be‛ēbher ha-nāhāř? (?beyond the river?; Encyclopedia Biblica under the word).

Arbonai
(Gr. Abronas, Α᾿βρωνᾶς v. r. Α᾿βρωναϊv, see Fritzsche, Comment. in loc.), a stream, as it would seem, in Mesopotamia, having several considerable cities on its banks which were destroyed by Holofernes (Jdt_2:24). Some regard it as being the same with the Habor (q.v.) or Chaboras of Scripture (2Ki_17:16). But it is probably a false rendering of a bungling translator for the original Hebrews בְּעֵבֶר הִנָּהָר, beyond the river, i, e. Euphrates (see Movers, in the Bonner Zeitschr. 13:38).
