2. A link in an Ephraimite genealogy, 1 Ch 7" (Zd,?e5), ending apparently in a certain ' Ezer and Elc.id,' who were slain liy the men of ( iatli. Zabad in MT is tli^j son of Tahatli and the father of Shuthelah. In LXX", however, the genealogy is much shortened, and it is Zaliad who is slain — thus, ' And the sons of Ephraim, Sotlial;ith. The sons of Laada, Noome, his son, Zabad his son : and tlie men of G;ith killed him.' It is pointed out in Shuthelah that Zab:ul (-iz\) here is probably a corruiition of 'ami Bond' (mm) repeated from v.^.* If so, this Zabad disappears. If, however, Zabad is retained here, cf. No. 1.
3. In 2 Ch 24'^ the name of one of the murderers of Joash is given as Zabad (15 Za.jit\, A Yia^cO), the son of Shiineath the Ammonitess. 2 K 12-' has Jo/.acar. Perhaps we should read here Zarar (Kittel, SHOT); cf. Jozacar.— 4. 5. 6. Three lay- men of the time of Ezra, who had married foreign wives, whom they promised to divorce: («) Ezr 10" of the bene Zattu (B Za^aSd^, NA Za^dJ ; 1 Es 9'* 2dj3a9os, cf. Sabatus). (4) Ezr lO*" of the benfi lla.shum (B Za/9A, A Za^dJ ; 1 Es 9*" H ^ajSowaioDt, A IJan/aioDs, cf. Sabanneu.s). (c) Ezr 10" of the bene Nebo (B iliSi/i, A omits both this and the following Zebina ; 1 Es 9'" Za/3aSa(a5, cf. Zaiia- DAIAS). Apparently Zebina is omitted. One of the two, Zal/atl, Zeoina, may be due to accidental repetition. W. H. Bennett.

ian tribe defeated by Jonathan (1 Mac 1'2")- The Pesli. form of the name seems to mean Znhnulmatts, i.e. Banu Zubaid, which was the name of a famous AraViian family ; and indeed derivatives from the root Zbd form many proper namus in Arabic and Nabatieaii (the name substituted for Zahada>an liy Jos. Ant. XIII. V. U), though tlie verb itself in its old sense ' to give ' is not found in Arabic. The name of the tribe defeated by Jonathan is thought to be retained in Zebdnny or Ziiba- dtini, ' a well-known district between Damascus and Baalbek, where the river of Damascus rises' (Yakut, ii. 913). The plain of Zebdany is thus described by Conder, Tent ■ Work in PaUntine, i. 249: 'It 13 flanked on the west by the ragged and ('astellated ridges of the Anti-Lebanon, and on the east by a range of equal height. The plateau is bare and treeless, except towards the north, where are groves of poplar. Through the centre runs the river, its course marked by green bushes.' The situation of the plain seems to agree with the movements recorded in 1 Mac. exceedingly well. Beth Zabdni, to which allusion is sometimes made in the Rabbinic writings, and which some have connected with this i)lace, has been shown by Kohut {Arufh Complctum, ii. 68) to belong to a difl'erent region.
