Zebaim

Zebaim

(Heb. with the art. hats-Tsebam’ the gazelles, as often; Sept. v.r. ; Vulg. Asebainn; in Nehemiah hats-Tsebam’, ; Sept. ; Vug. Sabaim), apparently the name of the native place of the sons of Pochereth, who are mentioned in the catalogue of the families of Solomon’s slaves as having returned from the Captivity with Zerubbabel (Ezr 2:57; Neh 7:59). On the other hand, the compound name Pochereth hat-Tsebam is considered by some to have no reference to place, but to signify the snarer or hunter of roes (Gesenius, Thesaur. p. 1102 b; Bertheau, Exeq. Handb. Ezr 2:57), designating doubtless an individual SEE POCHERETH.

(Ezra 2:57; Neh. 7:59). “Pochereth of Zebaim” should be read as in the Revised Version, “Pochereth-hazzebaim” (“snaring the antelopes”), probably the name of some hunter.
