IBZAN . One of the minor judges, following Jephthah ( Judges 12:8-10 ). He came from Bethlehem, probably the Bethlehem in Zebulun ( Joshua 19:15 ), 7 miles N.W. of Nazareth. He had 30 sons and 30 daughters an evidence of his social importance and arranged their marriages. He judged Israel 7 years, and was buried at Bethlehem. According to Jewish tradition, Ibzan was the same as Boaz.
