Ezbon

1. Gad’s son (Gn 46:16), called Ozni in Numbers 26:16; perhaps an eponym of a Gadite family.

2. Benjamin’s grandson (1 Chr 7:7). It has been proposed that 1 Chronicles 7:6-11 is a genealogy of Zebulun assigned to Benjamin by error, and that Ezbon suggests Ibzan (Jgs 12:8-10), a minor judge of Bethlehem.
