The name appears in the Old Testament, specifically in the First Book of Chronicles. Zobebah is listed among the descendants of Judah, highlighting the importance of lineage and heritage in the biblical narrative.<br><br><b>Biblical Reference:</b><br><br>Zobebah is mentioned in <a href="/1_chronicles/4-8.htm">1 Chronicles 4:8</a>: "Koz was the father of Anub and Zobebah, and the clans of Aharhel son of Harum." <br><br><b>Genealogical Context:</b><br><br>The genealogies in 1 Chronicles serve to establish the historical and familial context of the tribes of Israel, particularly focusing on the tribe of Judah, from which King David and ultimately Jesus Christ descended. Zobebah is part of this extensive lineage, which underscores the fulfillment of God's promises through the line of Judah.<br><br><b>Significance:</b><br><br>While Zobebah himself is not a prominent figure in biblical narratives, his inclusion in the genealogical records signifies the importance of every member within the tribe of Judah. Each name in these records contributes to the broader tapestry of Israel's history and God's unfolding plan for His people. The genealogies serve as a testament to God's faithfulness in preserving the line through which the Messiah would come.<br><br><b>Cultural and Historical Insights:</b><br><br>The genealogies in Chronicles were likely compiled during or after the Babylonian exile, a period when the Jewish people were re-establishing their identity and heritage. By documenting the lineage of Judah, the Chronicler provided a sense of continuity and hope, reminding the Israelites of their covenant relationship with God and their unique role in His divine plan.<br><br><b>Theological Implications:</b><br><br>From a theological perspective, the mention of Zobebah, along with other seemingly minor figures, highlights the biblical theme that every individual has a place in God's account. It reflects the belief that God's purposes are worked out through the lives of ordinary people, each contributing to the fulfillment of His promises.<br><br><b>Conclusion:</b><br><br>Zobebah's mention in the genealogical records of 1 Chronicles serves as a reminder of the intricate and purposeful design of God's plan for His people. Though not much is known about Zobebah himself, his inclusion in the sacred text underscores the value of every life in the unfolding narrative of redemption.<a name="smi" id="smi"></a><div class="vheading2">Smith's Bible Dictionary</div><span class="encheading">Zobebah</span><p>(<i>the slow</i>), son of Coz, of the tribe of Judah.
