Tubal

Morrish Bible Dictionary

Son of Japheth, and his descendants, who are supposed to have settled on the south-east of the Euxine or Black Sea, and were known as the Tibareni. They sent slaves and brass to Tyre. Their descendants with Rosh and Meshech will be among the enemies of the Jews in a future day, and will be destroyed. Genesis 10:2; 1 Chronicles 1:5; Isaiah 66:19; Ezekiel 27:13; Ezekiel 32:26; Ezekiel 38:2,3; Ezekiel 39:1 . The district they occupied now forms a part of the Russian Empire, which well agrees with their being associated with Rosh (Russia) and the Muscovites spoken of in Ezekiel 38 . The Moschi and Tibareni are constantly associated in the Assyrian inscriptions under the names of Muskai and Tuplai , which latter very nearly approaches Tubal.
