(Heb. Yerubbe'sheth, יְרֻבֶּשָׁת , countender with the shame, i.e. idol; compare ISHBOSHETH; Sept. Ι᾿εροβάαλ ), a surname (probably to avoid mentioning the name of a false god, Exodus 23:13) of GIDEON (See GIDEON) (q.v.), the Israelitish judge, acquired on account of his contest with the idolatry of Baal (2 Samuel 11:21). (See JERUBBAAL).
