Brown-Driver-Briggs

מַבּוּל noun masculine^{Genesis 7:6} flood in time of Noah (Late Hebrew id.; Jewish-Aramaic מַבּוּלָא; Syriac ; derivation dubious; Thes and others √ יבל, but improbable, see Dl^{Prol. 122 f.}; possibly old Assyrian (Babylonian) loan-word (yet form unkn. in Assyrian ), or from √ נבל = Assyrian nabâlu, destroy Dl^{HWB 443 f.}; compare Dl^{Par. 156; Prol. 122} Che^{Psalm 29:10 critical note, Hebraica. iii. 3, 175 f.}, O. Whitehouse^{COT ii. 293}); — ׳מ only Genesis and Psalm 29:10; always absolute and always with article except Genesis 9:11,15; — ׳וַיְהִי הַמּ Genesis 17:7; ׳לֹא יִהְיֶה עוֺד מ Genesis 9:11; following by מַיִם as appositive) Genesis 6:17; Genesis 7:6; ׳מֵי הַמּ Genesis 7:7,10; Genesis 9:11; לֹאיִֿהְיֶה ׳עוֺד הַמַּיִם לְמ Genesis 9:15; as epoch, in phrase ׳אַחַר הַמּ Genesis 9:28; Genesis 10:1,32; Genesis 11:10 (strike out as gloss Bu Di); יָשָׁ֑ב ׳לַמּ ׳י Psalm 29:10 ׳י at the flood sat enthroned (so most; Che^{see critical note} ' at the storm ' (destruction = destructive storm Id^{Hebraica. 1.c}.), but ׳הַמּ seems in all the other passages to be almost = proper name of the flood; compare also מֵי נֹחַ Isaiah 54:9 (twice in verse)).
