Short Description
"Ibzan (Hebrew: אִבְצָן‎ ’Iḇṣān; Ancient Greek: Ἀβαισσάν; Latin: Abesan, meaning "illustrious") appears in the Hebrew Bible as the tenth of the Judges of Israel. Very little is said about him, except the following:

8And after him [i.e. Jephthah], Ibzan of Bethlehem judged Israel.9 And he had thirty sons, and thirty daughters, whom he sent abroad, and took in thirty daughters from abroad for his sons. And he judged Israel seven years. 10 Then died Ibzan, and was buried at Bethlehem.

— Judges 12:8–10 (King James Version)Many scholars believe that the Bethlehem referred to in this passage is the Bethlehem in the territory of the Tribe of Zebulun, in Galilee, rather than the more famous Bethlehem in the Tribe of Judah." - (en.wikipedia.org 05.09.2020)
