Propheta autem ille aut fictor somniorum interficietur : quia locutus est ut vos averteret a Domino Deo vestro, qui eduxit vos de terra gypti, et redemit vos de domo servitutis : ut errare te faceret de via, quam tibi prcepit Dominus Deus tuus : et auferes malum de medio tui.
et terra Gibliorum et omnis Libanus in oriente a Baalgad sub monte Hermon usque ad introitum Emath,
Bible Verse Review
from Treasury of Scripure Knowledge
Giblites: Probably the inhabitants of the country, around Gebal - Ezekiel 27:9, or Byblos, as the LXX render, a city of Phoenicia, situated on the Mediterranean, between Sidon and Tripoli, on the north of the river Adonis. It is now called Gibyle, of Djebail, situated about a day's journey south of Tripoli. Its walls are about a mile in circumference, with square towers about every forty yards' distance. Anciently it must have been a place of no mean extent and of considerable beauty, from the ruins still visible. 1 Kings 5:18, *marg. Psalms 83:7, Ezekiel 27:9

Gill's Notes on the Bible
And the land of the Giblites,.... This was another country that remained unconquered; the Greeks call it Byblus, and near to which Pliny e speaks of a place called Gabale, and is now called Gibyle; it is f said to be
"pleasantly situated by the seaside, and at present it contains but a little extent of ground, but yet more than enough for the small number of its inhabitants:''
it was in greater splendour, and its inhabitants of more fame, in the times of Ezekiel, Ezekiel 27:9;
and all Lebanon toward the sunrising; or east of the land; all that inhabited that mountain remained unconquered, though the conquest was carried as far as the borders thereof:
from Baalgad, under Mount Hermon; of which see Joshua 11:17;
unto the entering into Hamath: which was the north border of the land; see Numbers 34:8.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible
Giblites - The people of Gebal (“Jebail”, 22 miles north of Beyronut). They were “stone-squarers” 1 Kings 5:18 and (ship) “caulkers” Ezekiel 27:9.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse Joshua 13:5. The land of the Giblites — This people dwelt beyond the precincts of the land of Canaan, on the east of Tyre and Sidon. See Ezekiel 27:9; Psalms 83:7; their capital was named Gebal. See Dodd.
All Lebanon — Joshua 11:17.
