Etymology
Confer the biblical GN Riblah, with interchange of b and p (JH, JAT, RFS). In some Semitic languages [b] and [p] are not always differentiated in the script (Akkadian, especially when they close a syllable) and orally (Arabic where only [b] exists, thus โboliceโ for โpoliceโ). Consult the standard biblical commentaries for the citations and the etymology. Note also Arabic rbl, โfertile, abundantโ (RFS).
It may be that this GN is JAREDITE in origin because of the common element ribla- occuring exclusively in JAREDITE names.
