Tibni

International Standard Bible Encyclopedia

tib´nı̄ ( תּבני , tibhnı̄ ; Codex Vaticanus Θαμνεί , Thamneı́ , Codex Alexandrinus Θαμνί , Thamnı́ , Lucian Θαβεννεί , Thabenneı́ ): A rival of Omri for the throne of Israel after the death of Zimri ( 1 Kings 16:21 f). This is the only reference to Tibni that has come down to us; a comparison of this passage with the account of Zimri's death (especially 1 Kings 16:15 ) shows that the length of the struggle was four years.
