JABEZ.1. A city in Judah occupied by scribes, the descendants of Caleb (1Ch_2:55). 2. A man of the family of Judah, noted for his honourable character (1Ch_4:9 ff.); called Yabçts, which is rendered as if it stood for Yatsçb, he causes pain. In his vow (1Ch_4:10) there is again a play upon his name.

jā?bez (יעבּץ, ya‛bēc, ?sorrow? (?height?)):
(1) Place: An unidentified town probably in the territory of Judah, occupied by scribes (1Ch_2:55). For an ingenious reconstruction of the passage see EB, under the word
(2) Person: The head of a family of Judah, noted for his ?honorable? character, though ?his mother bare him with sorrow? (1Ch_4:9, 1Ch_4:10), ya‛bēc being interpreted as if it stood for ya‛cēbh, ?he causes pain.? The same play upon words recurs in his prayer, ?that it be not to my sorrow!? His request was granted, ?and the sorrow implied by his ominous name was averted by prayer? (Dummelow, in the place cited.).

Jabez
(Heb. Yabets', יִעְבֵּוֹ, according to 1Ch_4:9, affliction, sc. to his mother, apparently by transposition from the root עָצִב; Sept. Ι᾿γαβής and Γαβής or Γάβης), the name of a man and also of a place.
1. A descendant of Judah (B.C. post 1612), but of what particular family is not apparent, although we have this remarkable account of him inserted among a series of bare pedigrees: And Jabez was more honorable than his brethren: and his mother called his name Jabez, saying, Because I bare him with sorrow (עֹצֶב). And Jabez called on the God of Israel, saying, Oh that thou wouldst bless me indeed, and enlarge my coast, and that thine hand might be with me, and that thou wouldst keep me from evil, that it may not grieve me (צָצְבַּי, otsbi')! And God granted him that which he requested (1Ch_4:9-10). It is very doubtful whether any connection exists between this genealogy and that in 1Ch_2:50-55. Several names appear in both Hur, Ephratah, Bethlehem, Zareathites (in A.V. 4:2 inaccurately Zorathites), Joab, Caleb; and there is much similarity between others, as Rechab and Rechah, Eshton and Eshtaulites; but any positive connection seems undemonstrable. The Targum identifies Jabez and Othniel. For the traditionary notices of this person and his character, see Clarke's Comnnent. ad loc.
2. A place described as being inhabited by several families of the scribes descended from the Kenites, and allied to the Rechabites (1Ch_2:55). It occurs in a notice of the progeny of Salma, who was of Judah, and closely connected with Bethlehem, possibly the father of Boaz-; and also-though how is not clear with Joab. The Targum states some curious particulars, which, however, do not much elucidate the difficulty, and which are probably a mixture of trustworthy tradition and of mere invention based on philological grounds. Rechab is there identified with Rechabiah, the son of Eliezer, Moses's younger son (1Ch_26:25), and Jabez with Othniel the Kenezite, who bore the name of Jabez because he founded by his counsel (עֵיצָה) a school (תִּרְבַּיצָא) of disciples called Tirathites, Shimeathites, and Sucathites. See also the quotations from Talmud. Tem urah, in Buxtorfs Lex. col. 966, where a similar deviation is given. As the place appears to have been situated within the territory of Judah, it may have been settled by the numerous posterity of the above person by the same name (comp. the men of Rechah, 1Ch_4:12). The associated names would seem to indicate a locality near, if not identical with Kirjath-jearim (comp. in the same region Kirjath- sepher, or book-town, implying the literary avocation of its inhabitants), where some of the same families appear to have dwelt (1 Chronicles 2, 53), e.g. the Ithrites =Kenites, the Shumathites = Simeathites.
