Etymology
Borrowed from Hebrew ציבור (“community”)
Noun
tzibbur
- (Judaism) A community.
2004 February 4, Henry Goodman, “Repairing an Eruv on Shabbat”, in soc.culture.jewish.moderated (Usenet):The phone company said they were working on it [the eruv] and the work would be completed during Friday evening. Can you trust them to the extent of informing the Tzibbur that they may not carry on Friday night but may on Shabbat morning?

2008 January 13, Abe Kohen, “Cincinnati congregations”, in soc.culture.jewish.moderated (Usenet):At hashkama I sit in front of an annoying old man who is always correcting the Torah readers, a practice infuriating to the tzibbur and to the reader.
