DIC dictionary-entry · status:draft · license:PD

kub ( כּוּב , kūbh ; the King James Version Chub ): The word occurs only in Ezekiel 30:5 . There it is almost certainly a corruption, and we should read, as in Septuagint, "Lub," i.e. Libya. Libya, in the earlier part of the same verse (the King James Version), is a mistr of "Put," Thus correctly rendered in the Revised Version (British and American).
