The whole BDB entry
n.f. appar. distance, only in the phr. כִּבְרַת (ה)ארץ a distance of land or length of way, Gn 35:16 וַיְהִי עוֹד כ׳ ה׳ לָבוֹא אֶפְרָתָה, 48:7 בְּעוֹד כ׳ א׳ לָבֹא אֶפְרָתָה, 2 K 5:19 וַיֵּלֶךְ מֵאִתּוֹ כ׳ אָ֑רֶץ. The distance meant is uncertain, but from 2 K 5:19 it would seem to have been a short one; v. further Di Gn 35, 16 and Thes (Assyrian kibrâti is a (widely extended) territory, quarter of the world, etc., DlHWB 315; according to HoffmGGAbh.. xxxvi (1890), 23–25 perhaps the distance that one can see).
