Or take it as corrupted form of sæppe; cf. EpGl 38 saeppae, ErfGl 1,37 sæpae; L equiv. in MS: ABIES
In her word-study of →æsp Biggam (2003, 201ff.) argues against the DOE, where æbs is labelled a loan-translation of ABIES; she argues convincingly that it has to be associated with OE →sæppe ('a fir species, eine Tannenart'). The association of æbs with →æsp is the result of a copying error.
