ez´bon :

(1) (אצבּן , 'ecbōn ; Peshitta, אצבעון , 'ecba'on ; Septuagint Θασοβάν , Thasobán ): A son of Gad (Genesis 46:16 ) = Ozni of Numbers 26:16 (see OZNI ).

(2) (אצבּון , 'ecbōn ; Septuagint Ἀσεβών , Asebō̇n ): In 1 Chronicles 7:7 is said to be a grandson of Benjamin. Curtis ( Ch ., 148) holds that the genealogical table there is that of Zebulun and not Benjamin, and says that Ezbon suggests Ibzan (Judges 12:8-10 ), a minor judge of Bethlehem of Zebulun (Moore, Judges , 310).
