The defeat of the Midianite kings, including Evi, is recorded in the narrative of Israel's journey to the Promised Land. This event is significant as it represents God's judgment against the Midianites for leading Israel into idolatry and immorality, as recounted in the incident of Baal-Peor (Numbers 25).<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>from the same as <a href="/hebrew/183.htm">avah</a><br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>one of five chiefs of Midian<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>Evi (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">אֱוִי</font> <font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>proper name, masculine</b></font> (<em>desire ?</em>) one of five chiefs of Midian <a href="/interlinear/numbers/31-8.htm">Numbers 31:8</a>;
