(mihssh' muh) Personal name meaning, “fame”. 1. Arab tribe descended from a son of Ishmael (Genesis 25:14; 1 Chronicles 1:30 ). 2 . Descendant of Simeon. Inclusion of the names Mibsam and Mishma in the geneologies of both Ishmael and Simeon suggest the incorporation of Arabs into that tribe as Simeon expanded southward (compare 1 Chronicles 4:38-43 ).
