HUZZAB . A word occurring in Nahum 2:7 . Gesenius derived it from a verb tsâbhabh , and read ‘the palace is dissolved and made to flow down .’ Many recent authorities regard it as from nâtsabh , and tr. [Note: translate or translation.] ‘ it is decreed .’ But Wellhausen and others have considered it a proper name referring to the Assyrian queen, or to the city of Nineveh personified.

W. M. Nesbit.
