1. Kiriath-Arba (place name) — The ancient Canaanite name for the city later known as Hebron, meaning 'city of four' or 'city of Arba.' All three sense clusters represent the same proper noun in different grammatical contexts: bare citation form (eng: Kiriath-Arba, spa: Quiriat-Arba, arb: قِرْيَةُ أَرْبَعَ, kor: 기럇아르바, swa: Kiriathi-Arba), prepositional use with beth 'in' (eng: in Kiriath-Arba, hin: किर्यत अर्बा में, arb: في قرية الأربع), and the article-prefixed form (eng: the Riblah-ward, spa: Qiryat-HaArba, arb: قِرْيَةِ الأَرْبَعَةِ). These are purely inflectional variants of one toponymic referent across Gen 23:2, 35:27, Josh 14:15, 15:13, 15:54, 20:7, 21:11, Judg 1:10, Neh 11:25. 9×
