the rendering in the Auth. Vers. in certain passages of two Hebrews words:<\/p>\n
, aphik, the bed of a brook (2Sa 22:16; Psa 18:15; Isa 8:7; elsewhere “stream,” “river,” etc.); and , shibboleth, a stream (Isa 27:12; “flood,” Psa 69:2; Psa 69:15).<\/p>\n
(1.<\/strong>) The bed of the sea or of a river (Ps. 18:15<\/span>; Isa. 8:7<\/span>).<\/p>\n (2.<\/strong>) The “chanelbone” (Job 31:22<\/span> marg.), properly “tube” or “shaft,” an old term for the collar-bone.<\/p>\n chanel (, ‘aphk (root , ‘aphak, to hold or contain, to be strong; compare Arabic ‘afak to overcome and ‘afik, preminent); , shibboleth (, shabhal, to go, to go up or grow, to flow; compare Arabic ‘asbal, to flow, to rain, to put forth ears; sabalat, an ear of grain; sabl, a road, a public fountain)): In Job 12:21; Job 40:18; Job 41:15 we have ‘aphk in the sense of strong (but compare Job 40:18, the Revised Version (British and American) tubes (of brass)). Elsewhere it is translated river, brook, stream, channel or watercourse. Shibboleth (in the dialect of Ephraim sibboleth (Jdg 12:6)) means an ear of grain (Gen 41:5; Rth 2:2; Isa 17:5) or a flood of water (Psa 69:2, Psa 69:15; Isa 27:12). In 2Sa 22:16 (compare Psa 18:15) we have:<\/p>\n Then the channels of the sea appeared,<\/p>\n The foundations of the world were laid bare,<\/p>\n By the rebuke of Yahweh,<\/p>\n At the blast of the breath of his nostrils.<\/p>\n This is reminiscent of fountains of the deep (Gen 7:11; Gen 8:2; Pro 8:28). It is a question how far we should attribute to these ancient writers a share in modern notions of oceanography, but the idea seems to be that of a withdrawal of the water of the ocean, and the laying bare of submarine declivities and channels such as we know to exist as the result of erosion during a previous period of elevation, when the given portion of ocean floor was dry land.<\/p>\n The fact that many streams of Palestine flow only during the rainy season seems to be referred to in Job 6:15; and perhaps also in Psa 126:4.
