Zibeon zib'-e-on (tsibh`on, "hyena"; HPN, 95; Sebegon): A Horite chief (Genesis 36:2, Genesis 36:14, Genesis 36:20, Genesis 36:24, Genesis 36:29, 1 Chronicles 1:38, 1 Chronicles 1:40); he is called the "Hivite" in Genesis 36:2 where "Horite" should be read with Genesis 36:20. In Genesis 36:2, Genesis 36:14 Anah is said to be "the daughter of Zibeon," whereas the Septuagint, the Samaritan Pentateuch, the Syriac, and Lucian have "the son of Zibeon"; compare 1 Chronicles 1:38, 1 Chronicles 1:40, where also Anah is Zibeon's son.
