The name is thought to mean "splendid" or "illustrious," reflecting a sense of honor or distinction.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>Ibzan is listed as one of the minor judges in the Book of Judges. He is noted for his leadership over Israel and his large family, which included thirty sons and thirty daughters. His account is brief, indicating a period of relative peace and stability during his judgeship. The cultural context of Ibzan's time was one of tribal confederation, where judges served as both military leaders and arbiters of justice. His large family may reflect the importance of kinship and alliances in maintaining social and political stability.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>from the same as <a href="/hebrew/77.htm">Ebets</a><br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>a judge of Isr.<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>Ibzan (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> <font class="hebrew2">אִבְצָן</font> <font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>proper name, masculine</b></font> <font size="+1"><b>judge of Isr</b></font>. <a href="/interlinear/judges/12-8.htm">Judges 12:8</a>,10 (Lag<sup>GN 1891, 19</sup> <font class="hebrew2">(אֲ)בֶן צָן</font>, <font class="hebrew2">ᵐ5</font> <font face="Gentium,Galatia SIL,SBL Greek,GFS Porson,Times New Roman">Ἀβεσσαν</font>, <font class="hebrew2">ᵑ6</font> <img src="/bdbgif/bdb000701.gif">). <p><font class="hebrew2">אבק</font> (Arabic <img src="/bdbgif/bdb000702.gif"> <em>run away</em> (compare Lag<sup>BN 51</sup>)). <br><br><iframe width="100%" height="85" scrolling=no src="/bsoft2.htm" frameborder=0 cellpadding=0></iframe><div class="vheading2">Strong's Exhaustive Concordance</div>Ibzan <p>From the same as <a href="/hebrew/76.htm">aba'bu'ah</a>;
