A place on the river Chebar in Mesopotamia, where a colony of captive Jews was located, Eze 3:15. A town called Thallaba is still found in that region.

Tel-a'bib

City of Chaldea or Babylon, on the river Chebar. Ezekiel remained there 'astonished' seven days with those in captivity, and there the word came to him from Jehovah. Eze 3:15. Not identified.

Tel-a'bib

(cornhill) was probably a city of Chaldaea or Babylonia, not of upper Mesopotamia as generally supposed.

Eze 3:16

The whole scene of Ezekiel's preaching and visions seems to have been Chaldaea proper; and the river Chebar, as already observed, was not the Khabour, but a branch of the Euphrates.
