Biblical figure

This article is about the person in Genesis 4. For other people of this name, see Jubal Jubal (also Yuval, Yubal or Tubal; Hebrew: יוּבָל – Yūḇāl) is a Biblical figure in Genesis 4:21 of the Hebrew Bible and Old Testament. Mentioned only once, he is sometimes regarded by Christians, particularly by medieval commentators, as the 'inventor of music'. A descendant of Cain, his father is Lamech and his brother is Jabal.

Biblical narrative [ edit ]

Jubal is only known from his appearance in Genesis 4:21 of the Hebrew Bible and Old Testament. The account describes him as a descendant of Cain and the son of Lamech and Adah. He is also a brother of Jabal, and half-brother of Tubal-cain and Naamah. Genesis credits him as the forefather of certain instruments: the kinnor (Hebrew: כנור) and ugab (עוגב). The translations of these vary depending on the edition: "he was the ancestor of all those who play the lyre and pipe" (NRSV)[2] "he was the father of all such as handle the harp and organ" (KJV)[3] "he was the father of all who play stringed instruments and pipes" (NIV)[4]

According to an unnamed Jewish source mentioned in Muhammad Al-Tabari's work History of the Prophets and Kings (915 CE), Jubal invented musical instruments during the time of Mahalalel.[5]
