Notes (2)

  1. 1Not otherwise attested as such. Rather, a נבל nebel is a bag or bottle made of skin in Hebrew: see for this Isaiah 22.24; 1 Samuel 1.24. 10.3, 25.18; 2 Samuel 16.1. But elsewhere a type of musical instrument: see e.g. Psalm 33.2. ↩
  2. 1Likewise in the Etymologicum Gudianum. (This addendum is lacking, Adler reports, in mss AF.) ↩
