Huzzab:
(fixed) according to the general opinion of the Jews, was the queen of Nineveh at the time when Nahum delivered his prophecy (Nahum 2:7). (B.C. about 700) The moderns follow the rendering in the margin of our English Bible-"that which was established." Still it is not improbable that after all Huzzab may really be a proper name. It may mean "the Zab country," or the fertile tract east of the Tigris, watered by the upper and lower Zab rivers.
The Blue Letter Bible ministry and the BLB Institute hold to the historical, conservative Christian faith, which includes a firm belief in the inerrancy of Scripture. Since the text and audio content provided by BLB represent a range of evangelical traditions, all of the ideas and principles conveyed in the resource materials are not necessarily affirmed, in total, by this ministry.
