To beat the tabret, a small drum or tambourine. The word is used in Jon 2:7 of women beating their breasts in sign of grief.<\/p>\n
TABER.Only in Nah 2:7 her handmaids mourn as with the voice of doves, tabering (Amer. RV [Note: Revised Version.] beating) upon their breasts. Beating the breast was a familiar Oriental custom in mourning (cf. Isa 32:12). The word here used means lit. drumming (cf. Psa 68:26, its only other occurrence). The English word taber means a small drum, usually accompanying a pipe, both instruments being played by the same performer. Other forms are tabor, tabour, and tambour; and dim. forms are tabret and tambourine.<\/p>\n
taber (, taphaph, to strike a timbrel ((Psa 68:25)): The word is used only once in the King James Version, namely, in the exceedingly graphic account of the capture of Nineveh given in Nah 2:7. The queen (perhaps the city personified) is dishonored and led into ignominious captivity, followed by a mourning retinue of maids of honor who taber upon, that is, beat violently, their breasts. Such drumming on the breasts was a gesture indicative of great grief (Luk 18:3).<\/p>\n
