/taː.buːt/
الأصلFrom earlier تَوَبُوت (tawabūt) or تَاوْبُوَّة (tāwbuwwa), from Classical Syriac ܬܝܒܘܬܐ (tēḇūṯā) or Ge'ez ታቦት (tabot). Cognate with Hebrew תיבה (tevá).
Ultimately from a merger of Egyptian DbA-b-t:pr (ḏbꜣt, “sarcophagus, coffin”) and d-b-t:xt (dbt, “chest, box”); compare Demotic Egyptian tbyt (“sarcophagus, shrine, chest”), dbt, and tbt (“chest”) and Coptic ⲧⲁⲓⲃⲉ (taibe, “chest, coffin”).
- box, case, chest, coffer, ark
“أَنِ ٱقْذِفِيهِ فِي ٱلتَّابُوتِ فَٱقْذِفِيهِ فِي ٱلْيَمِّ فَلْيُلْقِهِ ٱلْيَمُّ بِٱلسَّاحِلِ” — Cast him into the chest and cast it into the river, and the river will throw it onto the bank.
- coffin, casket, sarcophagus
“مَاذَا وَرَاءَ حِكَايَةِ ٱكْتِشَافِ تَابُوتِ ٱلْمَسِيحِ فِي ٱلْقُدْسِ؟” — What's behind the story of the discovery of the coffin of Christ in Jerusalem?
