Tabret
(Heb. toph), a timbrel (q.v.) or tambourine, generally played by women (Gen 31:27; 1 Sam 10:5; 1 Sam 18:6). In Job 17:6 the word (Heb. topheth) “tabret” should be, as in the Revised Version, “an open abhorring” (marg., “one in whose face they spit;” lit., “a spitting in the face”).
From Easton’s Bible Dictionary (1897), by Matthew George Easton.
