In the Bible, the Midianites are often depicted as both adversaries and allies of the Israelites. The name is associated with various biblical narratives, including the account of Moses, who fled to Midian and married Zipporah, the daughter of Jethro, a priest of Midian.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>The Midianites were a nomadic people who inhabited the desert regions east of the Gulf of Aqaba. They were descendants of Midian, a son of Abraham by his concubine Keturah (Genesis 25:1-2). The Midianites were known for their trade and commerce, often interacting with neighboring peoples, including the Israelites. Their relationship with Israel was complex, involving both conflict and cooperation. The Midianites are notably remembered for their role in the account of Balaam and their subsequent defeat by the Israelites under Moses' leadership (Numbers 31).<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>of Hebrew origin <a href="/hebrew/4080.htm">Midyan</a><br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>Midian, a region of Arabia<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>Midian (1).<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">Thayer's Greek Lexicon</div><span class="maintitle">STRONGS NT 3099: Μαδιάμ</span><br><br><span class="arttitle"><span class="grktitle">Μαδιάμ</span></span>, <span class="greek2">ἡ</span> (Hebrew <span class="hebrew">מִדְיָן</span> (i. e.
