Zibia

Zibia was a wife of Shaharaim, a Benjamite leader, mentioned in the genealogical records of 1 Chronicles. She appears as part of the tribal lineage documentation in Israel's history.

Overview

Zibia is mentioned only once in Scripture as one of the wives of Shaharaim, a man of the tribe of Benjamin. The name appears in the genealogical records of 1 Chronicles, which document the family lines and descendants of the Benjamite tribe. While little is known about her personal life or significance, her inclusion in Scripture affirms that God's Word preserves the family histories and heritage of His people.

Key Scriptures

"And Shaharaim had children in the country of Moab, after he had sent away Hushim and Baara his wives. He had children by Hodesh his wife: Jobab, Zibia, Mesha, Malcam" (1 Chronicles 8:8, ESV).

Application

Even obscure biblical names remind us that God knows and records the details of every person's life, encouraging believers to trust that our lives matter to the Lord regardless of how prominently we appear in earthly records.
