Ι᾿εβουσαί, Ι᾿εβοῦς, Vulg. ''Jebusceus),'' the name employed for the city of JEBUS, only in the ancient document describing the landmarks and the towns of the allotment of Judah and [[Benjamin]] ( Joshua 15:8; Joshua 18:16; Joshua 18:28). In the first and last place, the explanatory words, "‘ which is Jerusalem," are added. In the first, however, our translators have given it as "the Jebusite." A parallel to this mode of designating the town by its inhabitants is found in this very list in [[Zemaraim]] ( Joshua 18:22), [[Avim]] ( Joshua 18:23), [[Ophni]] ( Joshua 18:24), and [[Japhletite]] (jos 16:3), etc. </p> <p> '''2.''' "Jebusite" or "Jebusites," forms indiscriminately employed in the A.Vers., although in the original the name, whether applied to individuals or to thenation, is never found in the plural; always singular. The full form isהִיְּבוּסַי; but in a few places viz. 2 Samuel 5, 6; 2 Samuel 24:16; 2 Samuel 24:18; 1 Chronicles 21:18 only - it is "defectively" written הִיְבֻסַי . Without the article, יְבוּסַי it occurs in 2 Samuel 5:8; 1 Chronicles 11:6; Zechariah 9:7. In the first two of these the force is much increased by removing the article introduced in- the A. Vers., and reading "and smiteth a Jebusite." See [[Jebusite]] </p> | ||
