Sheth

VIEW:23 DATA:01-04-2020
SHETH.—In Num_24:17 (only) AV [Note: Authorized Version.] and RVm [Note: Revised Version margin.] tr. [Note: translate or translation.] bĕnç shçth ‘children (sons) of Sheth,’ but there can be little doubt that the correct tr. [Note: translate or translation.] is that of RV [Note: Revised Version.] , ‘sons of tumult.’
Hastings' Dictionary of the Bible
Edited by James Hastings, D.D. Published in 1909


1. Seth in 1Ch_1:1.
2. Num_24:17 translated "destroy all the children of tumult," i.e. Moab's fierce warriors (Exo_15:15; Isa_15:4; Isa_16:6). Sheth is related to shaon in the parallel "tumultuous ones," Hebrew "children of tumult" (Jer_48:45); others make Sheth a Moabite king.
Fausset's Bible Dictionary
By Andrew Robert Fausset, co-Author of Jamieson, Fausset and Brown's 1888.


Sheth. (compensation).
1. The patriarch, Seth. 1Ch_1:1. In the Authorized Version of Num_24:17, not a proper name, but there is reason to regard it as an appellative. Read instead of "the sons of Sheth," "the suns of tumult". Compare Jer_48:45.

See SETH.

(Heb. id. שֵׁת), the form of two names, one more accurate that that elsewhere, the other doubtful.
1. The patriarch Seth (1Ch_1:1).
2. In the A.V. of Num_24:17, שֵׁתis rendered as a proper name, but there is reason to regard it as an appellative, and to translate, instead of “the Sons of Sheth,” “the sons of tumult,” the wild warriors of Moab, for in the parallel passage (Jer_48:45) שָׁאוֹ, shaon, “tumult, “ occupies the place of sheth שֵׁת, sheth, is thus equivalent to שֵׁאת, sheth, as in Lam_3:47. Ewald proposes, very unnecessarily, to read שֵׁת, seth= שְׂאֵת, and to translate “the sons of haughtiness” (Hochmuthsssohne). Rashi takes the word as a proper name, and refers it to Seth the son of Adam; and this seems to have been the view taken by Onkelos, who renders “he shall rule all the souls of men.” The Jerusalem Targum gives “all the sons of the East;” the Targum of Jonathan ben-Uzziel retains the Hebrew word Sheth, and explains it “of the armies of Gog who were to set themselves in battle array against Israel.”
