Jeffery1938: »[…] ṣalīb occurs in the old poetry, e.g. al-Nābiġa, ii, 10 (Ahlwardt, Divans, p. 4), and ʕAdī b. Zayd (Aġānī, ii, 24), etc., and is doubtless derived from Aram ṣlībā; Syr ṣlīḇā, as Fraenkel, Fremdw, 276, claims. The word is not original in Aram, however, and perhaps came originally from some Iranian source from a root represented by the Pers čalīpā (Vollers, ZDMG, 1, 614). Mingana, Syriac Influence, 86, claims that it was from Syr rather than from JudAram that the word came to Ar, and as the Eth [Gz] taṣalləba seems to be of this origin,1 it may be so.2 «
1. The form [Gz] ṣalīb is later and derived from the Ar (Nöldeke, Neue Beiträge, 35). 2. So Ahrens, Christliches, 40.
