zı̄´za ( זיזה , zı̄zāh ; see ZIZA ): A G ershonite Levite (1 Chronicles 23:11 ); in 1 Kings 6:10 the name is "Zina" ( זינא , zı̄nā' ), while the Septuagint and Vulgate (Jerome's Latin Bible, 390-405 A.D.) have "Ziza" (Ζιζά , Zizá ) in both verses, and one Hebrew manuscript has zı̄zā' in 1 Chronicles 23:10 . We should then probably read zı̄zā' in both verses, i.e. "Ziza."
