Tabret

VIEW:20 DATA:01-04-2020

TABRET (see art. Taber) is AV [Note: Authorized Version.] tr. [Note: translate or translation.] of tôph in Gen_31:27, 1Sa_10:5; 1Sa_18:6, Isa_5:12; Isa_24:8; Isa_30:32, Jer_31:4, Eze_28:13. The same Heb. word is tr. [Note: translate or translation.] ‘timbrel’ in Exo_15:20, Jdg_11:34, 2Sa_6:5, 1Ch_13:8, Job_21:12, Psa_81:2; Psa_149:3; Psa_150:4. It might have been well to drop both ‘timbrel’ and ‘tabret,’ neither of which conveys any clear sense to a modern ear, and adopt some such rendering as ‘tambourine’ or ‘hand-drum’. The AV [Note: Authorized Version.] rendering of Job_17:6 ‘aforetime I was as a tabret,’ has arisen from a confusion of tôpheth ‘spitting’ with tôph ‘tambourine.’ The words mean ‘I am become one to be spit on in the face’ (RV [Note: Revised Version.] ‘an open abhorring’).

(a contraction of taboret, for “taboring”, SEE TABER ) is the rendering in the A. V. of the two kindred words תֹּ, tôph (Gen_31:27; 1Sa_10:5; 1Sa_18:6; Isa_5:2; Isa_24:8; Isa_30:32; Jer_31:4; Eze_28:13; elsewhere “timbrel”) and תֹּפֶתtôpheth (Job_17:6), which both mean a musical instrument of the drum kind (from תָּפ, to beat). This sort of music has always been in great request, both in classical and sacred scenes, especially on festive occasions. SEE MUSICAL INSTRUMENTS. Especially has that form of the drum known as the tambourine been in vogue, particularly for female performers. SEE TIMBREL.
