( כּברה , kibhrāh , "length," "a measure"): A technical measure of distance in the Hebrew; but it must be considered undefined ( Genesis 35:16; Genesis 48:7 the King James Version, the English Revised Version "some way," the American Standard Revised Version "some distance"; 2 Kings 5:19 , the English Revised Version "some way," the American Revised Version margin "some distance"). The Hebrew term kibhrāh is also found in Phoenician inscriptions as a measure of distance.
