Jobab
From CreationWiki, the encyclopedia of creation science
Jobab was the thirteenth son of Joktan mentioned in Genesis 10:29. Jobab gave rise to the Jobaites which Ptolemy mentions as dwelling in south Arabia. The Italian spelling of Jobab is "Tiobo", later changed to Tibiscus, which migrated into Hungary. Jobab's descendants were known to the Akkadians as the Iabibi. They settled in the town that bore their founder's name, Juhaibab, which, according to Sabean inscriptions, lay close to what is now Mecca.
