However, the concept of kingship and opposition to God's people can be related to Greek terms for rulers or adversaries.<p><span class="tophdg">Usage: </span>Reba is a proper noun used in the Hebrew Bible to refer to a Midianite king. The name is associated with one of the five kings of Midian who were defeated and killed by the Israelites under the leadership of Moses and Phinehas.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>The Midianites were a nomadic people who lived in the region east of the Jordan River. They were descendants of Midian, a son of Abraham by his concubine Keturah. The Midianites often came into conflict with the Israelites, particularly during the time of the Exodus and the conquest of Canaan. The defeat of the Midianite kings, including Reba, is a significant event in the narrative of Israel's journey to the Promised Land, symbolizing God's deliverance and judgment against those who opposed His people.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>from <a href="/hebrew/7250.htm">raba</a><br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>a king of Midian<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>Reba (2).<p><div align="center"><span class="smalltext"><iframe width="100%" height="85" scrolling=no src="/nasec.htm" frameborder=0 cellpadding=0></iframe></span></div><div class="vheading2">Brown-Driver-Briggs</div> II. <font class="hebrew2">רֶ֫בַע</font> <font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>noun masculine</b></font> <font size="+1"><b>a king of Midian</b></font> <a href="/interlinear/numbers/31-8.htm">Numbers 31:8</a>;
