Etymology: Inherited Cf. Aram. ʿbṭ “to be thick”, see Sokoloff 2009, 1064f. Pace AHw 182, Arab. ḫbṭ does not mean “anschwellen”, but “schlagen”, see Wehr 1985, 319f. It is likely that ebēṭu II “to bind” is connected with ebēṭu I. For some attestations, a clear assignment is not possible, especially when referring to inner organs or in transf. mngs. Note also the similar distribution of meanings in Aram. ʿbṭ (I) “to be thick, dense” and ʿbṭ D (II) “to tie up”, both with several derivations.
