Ibzan [Ĭb'zăn]—splendid or active. One of the minor judges who succeeded Jephthah, and who judged Israel seven years and was buried at Bethlehem. He had thirty sons and thirty daughters whose marriages he arranged. His sixty children testified to his plurality of wives and his social importance. Jewish tradition identifies Ibzan as Boaz (Judg. 12:8, 10).
