(jih ee' zuhr) Personal name meaning, “where is help?” or a shortened form of “my brother helps” or “my father helps.” Original head of a clan in tribe of Gilead (Numbers 26:30 ). Apparently, the same name is intended in Joshua 17:2 where Abiezer occurs, quite probably the original name. See Abiezer . Modern translations often use spelling Iezer.
