- Parbar:
- i.e. the outside place; he annulled the corn; a quarter of Jerusalem (Strong), [Strong's H6503], "At Parbarª westward,ª fourª at the causeway,ª [and] twoª at Parbar.ª" {1Ch 26:18}, Also, "And he took awayª°¹ the horsesª that¹ the kingsª of Judahª had givenª° to the sun,ª at the entering inª°¹ of the houseª of the LORD,ª by¹ the chamberª of Nathanmelechª the chamberlain,ª which¹ [was] in the suburbs,ª and burnedª° the chariotsª of the sunª with fire.ª" {2Kg 23:11} Parbar is most probably the same as parwar, which denotes suburbs ("And he took awayª°¹ the horsesª that¹ the kingsª of Judahª had givenª° to the sun,ª at the entering inª°¹ of the houseª of the LORD,ª by¹ the chamberª of Nathanmelechª the chamberlain,ª which¹ [was] in the suburbs,ª and burnedª° the chariotsª of the sunª with fire.ª" {2Kg 23:11}), in which sense it is often used in the Chaldee Targums; and consequently this may be considered as leading to the suburbs.
