It is typically interpreted as "contender" or "adversary." In the context of the biblical narrative, Yareb is associated with a foreign king or power that acts as an adversary or a source of judgment against Israel.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>The name Yareb appears in the context of the prophetic literature of the Old Testament, specifically in the book of Hosea. During this period, Israel was often under threat from surrounding nations, and the prophets frequently used symbolic language to describe these adversarial relationships. The name Yareb may refer to a specific king or be a personification of a foreign power, such as Assyria, which was a dominant force in the region during Hosea's ministry.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>from <a href="/hebrew/7378.htm">rib</a><br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>"let him contend," the name of an Assyr. king<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>Jareb (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">יָרֵב</font> <font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>noun masculine, eipthet</b></font> <font size="+1"><b>of Assyrian king</b></font> (properly, si vera lectio, verb = <em>let him contend</em>, or (one who) <em>contends</em>); — only <font class="hebrew2">׳</font><font class="hebrew2">מֶלֶךְ י</font> <a href="/interlinear/hosea/5-18.htm">Hosea 5:18</a>; <a href="/interlinear/hosea/10-6.htm">Hosea 10:6</a>, i.e. Tiglath-Pileser III; WMM<sup>ZAW xvii (1897), 335</sup> proposes <font class="hebrew2">מַלְכִּי רַב</font> (<font class="hebrew2">י</font>- old noun ending) = Assyrian <i><em>šarru rabbu;</em></i> Che<sup>Expos., Nov. 1807, 864</sup> <font class="hebrew2">מלך רב</font>; Che<sup>Ency.
