Hitchcock's Bible Names Dictionary


JOBAB.—1. A son of Joktan in the genealogies (Gen_10:29, 1Ch_1:23), and therefore probably an Arabian geographical name. Glaser identifies Jobab with YHYBB (likely Yuhaybab), a tribe mentioned in the Sabæan inscriptions. Sprenger through the LXX [Note: Septuagint.] form Iobor relates it to Wabâr, a considerable region in S. Arabia. 2. A king of Edom (Gen_36:33 f., 1Ch_1:44 f.), confused, in the apocryphal appendix to the LXX [Note: Septuagint.] version of Job, with Job (see Job, § 1). 3. A king of Madon, ally of Jabin of Hazor against Joshua (Jos_11:1). 4, 5. Name of two Benjamites (1Ch_8:9; 1Ch_8:18).

1. Last of Joktan's sons (Gen_10:29; 1Ch_1:23). Ptolemy mentions the Jobaritoe (perhaps Jobabitae ought to be read) among the Arabs.
2. King of Edom (Gen_36:33-34); son of Zerah of Bozrah; successor of Bela, first king. His association in kindred with Eliphaz (2) gives color to the conjecture that Jobab equates to Job.
3. Jos_11:1.
4. 1Ch_8:9.

Jobab
(Heb. Yobab', יוֹבָב, probably dweller in the desert, from the Arabic; Sept. Ι᾿ωβάβ, but in 1Ch_1:23, τὸν Εὐἱ καὶ τὸν ᾿Ωράμ, v.r. simply Ι᾿ωάβ), the name of several men.
1. The last-named of the sons of Joktan, and founder of a tribe in Arabia (Gen_10:29; 1Ch_1:23), B.C. post 2414. Bochart compares (Phaleg, 2, 29) the Jobaritoe (Ιωβαρῖται) of Ptolemy (6, 7, 24), a people on the eastern coast of Arabia, near the Socalitae, which, after Salmasius, he supposes to be for Jobabitoe; so also Michaelis (Spicileg. 2, 303; Supplem. 1013).
2. Son of Zerah of Bozrah, king of Edom after Bela and before Husham (Gen_36:33-34; 1Ch_1:44-45), B.C. prob. long ante 1617. The supposition that he was identical with the patriarch Job rests only upon the apocryphal addition to the book of Job in the Sept., and is utterly unworthy of credit. SEE JOB.
3. The Canaanitish king of Madon, one of those whose aid Jabin invoked in the struggle with the Israelites (Jos_11:1), B.C. 1617.
4. The first-named of the sons of Shaharaim by one of his wives, Hodesh or Baara of the tribe of Benjamin, although apparently born in Moab (1Ch_8:9), B.C. cir. 1612.
5. One of the “sons” of Elpaal, a chief of Benjamin, at Jerusalem (1Ch_8:18), B.C. probably cir. 588.
