Cabul is the name of two places in ancient Israel mentioned in the Bible:

  • A district in the north-west of Galilee, near to Tyre, containing twenty cities given to Hiram by Solomon as a reward for various services rendered to him in building the temple. (1 Kings 9:13) Hiram however was not pleased with the gift, the name signifying "good for nothing."
  • One of the landmarks on the boundary of Asher, (Joshua 19:27) now Kabul, 9 or 10 miles east of Acco.

And the King of Cabul rejoiced in the sight of the hero, and he kept him beside him and gave unto him his daughter to wife.
Now the King of Cabul paid tribute unto Rustem, and it was a grievance to him to do so, and since he had taken Shugdad as his son he deemed that it was fitting that he should be relieved of this burden.
And he went into Cabul, and he laid low all the men he found therein, and he slew the King and all his house, and he changed the land into a desert.
