Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: While there is no direct Greek equivalent in the Strong's Concordance, the concept of a cloak or outer garment can be related to Greek terms such as ἱμάτιον (himation - Strong's Greek 2440), which also refers to a cloak or outer garment.

Usage: The term "karbela" refers to a type of outer garment or cloak. It is used in the context of clothing, often indicating a specific style or type of mantle worn during the time of the Babylonian exile.

Cultural and Historical Background: In the ancient Near East, clothing was not only functional but also a symbol of status and identity. The "karbela" would have been a significant garment, possibly indicating a person's social standing or role. During the Babylonian exile, Jewish people would have been exposed to various cultural influences, including styles of dress. The "karbela" reflects this blend of cultural elements.
