The term is used as a proper place name: 1 Kings 9:13 names a land called Cabul, while Joshua 19:27 identifies Cabul as a destination or boundary point.

Senses in use

  1. Place name for a land and boundary point · dominant

    Both occurrences are tagged as a proper noun. In 1 Kings 9:13 the APB renders the clause "he called them the land of Cabul," while in Joshua 19:27 it renders the route as having "came out toward Cabul on the left."

In the Anselm Project Bible: The APB presents the name as "Cabul" in both verses: as "the land of Cabul" in 1 Kings 9:13 and as a location approached in Joshua 19:27. These clauses confirm the place-name use rather than supply a separate lexical rendering.
