Seba was the eldest son of Cush (; ), and gave name to the country of Seba or Saba, and to one of the tribes called Sabeans, not, however, the Shebaiim, but the Sebaiim. There seems no reason to doubt that their ultimate settlement was in that region of Africa which was known to the Hebrews as the land of Cush, and to the Greeks and Romans as Ethiopia; and the Scriptural notices respecting them and their country have been already anticipated in the articles Cush and Ethiopia.
