The whole BDB entry
vb.? divide (so most, but dub.; Arabic هَبَرَ cut into large pieces, cut up, is perhaps denom. from هَبْرَةٌ a ‘chunk’ of meat; comparison of Arabic خَبُرَ be acquainted with, skilled in (AW Kn Di) is also doubtful; if correct, then read חבר; but cf. infr.)— Pf. 3 pl. הברו Is 47:13 Kt, Pt. הֹבְרֵי Qr; הֹבְרֵ֯ו שָׁמַיִם הַחֹזִים בַּכּוֹכָבִים they that divide the heavens, that gaze at the stars (Kt would be rel. cl. without אֲשֶׁר); ה׳ then refers to the distinguishing of signs of zodiac, or other astrological division of sky, cf. Che; on zodiac in Babylon v. JenKosmologie 57 ff.; & on planets & constellations Id.ib. 95 ff. Epping & StrmAstronomisches aus Bab. 109 ff.;—but text prob. corrupt; GFM (June, 1892) suggests חֹקְרֵי (cf. חקר את־הארץ Ju 18:2).
