Zebah [Zē'bah]—victim or sacrifice. This Midianite king defeated and slain by Gideon is always mentioned along with Zalmunna (Judg. 8; Ps. 83:11). The death of these two kings meant a turning point in the struggle of the Israelites against their Midianite oppressors. For this reason their slaughter is graphically described, and was commemorated long after as a crisis in the nation’s history (Ps. 83:11; Isa. 9:4; 10:26).
