| Zebo'im. (gazelles). The valley of Zeboim, a ravine or gorge, apparently east of Michmash, mentioned only in 1Sa 13:18. The road running from Michmash to the east is specified as "the road of the border that looketh to the ravine of Zeboim toward the wilderness." The wilderness is no doubt the district of uncultivated mountain tops and sides which lies between the central district of Benjamin and the Jordan valley. In that very district, there is a wild gorge bearing the name of Shuk ed-Dubba', ravine of the hyena, "the exact equivalent of Ge hat-tsebo'im "." Smith's Bible Dictionary or |
