זִקְנֵ֨י גְבַ֤ל וַחֲכָמֶ֙יהָ֙ הָ֣יוּ בָ֔ךְ מַחֲזִיקֵ֖י בִּדְקֵ֑ךְ כָּל־אֳנִיּ֨וֹת הַיָּ֤ם וּמַלָּֽחֵיהֶם֙ הָ֣יוּ בָ֔ךְ לַעֲרֹ֖ב מַעֲרָבֵֽךְ׃
Ang matatanda ng Gebal at ang kaniyang mga pantas ay nasa iyo, sila ang nagkukumpuni ng iyong mga sira; ang lahat ng barko sa dagat at ang kanilang mga mandaragat ay nasa iyo upang makipagkalakalan ng iyong mga paninda.
Rashi
And the Givlim. A nation whose name was Geval, and they were skilled in chiseling stones and in building,29Geval comes from the word גבול [=boundary]. The Givlim knew how to mark the boundaries of the stone before they cut it, and were thus able to cut stone to exact dimensions. as it is stated in reference to Tzur, “The elders of Geval and its wise men, were within you, caulkers of your cracks.”30Yechezkeil 27:9.
Rabbeinu Bahya
ממולח, “salted.” This is what our sages referred to when they said (Keritut 6) that a quarter measure of salt from the Dead Sea was added to the mixture. It is also possible to understand the word ממולח as meaning “thoroughly mixed,” as Onkelos translates it. The purpose was to make it impossible to recognise any one of these spices separately. This may be the reason that sailors are called מלחים, as they thoroughly mix up the waters of the sea with their oars. The word occurs in such a context in Ezekiel 27,27 מלחיך וחובליך, “your sailors and your pilots.”
