Son of Zerah, and grandfather or ancestor of Achan ( 1 Chronicles 2:6 ); called Zabdi in Joshua 7:1 . Joshua 7:3 . A Benjamite ( 1 Chronicles 8:36; 1 Chronicles 9:42 ). 4 . See next article. 5 . ‘All the kings of Zimri’ are mentioned in the same verse, Jeremiah 25:25 , with those of Elam and the Medes as among those who were to drink the cup of the fury of the Lord.
