Jerubbesheth:
contender with the shame; i.e., idol, a surname also of Gideon (2Sa 11:21).
Jerubbesheth:
let the idol of confusion defend itself
Jerubbesheth:
jer-ub-be'-sheth, je-rub'-e-sheth (yerubbesheth, see JERUBBAAL, for meaning): It is found once (2Sa 11:21) for JERUBBAAL.
The word bosheth, "shameful thing," was substituted by later editors of the text for ba‘al, "lord," in the text of Jer 3:24; Ho 9:10; in 2Sa 2:8, etc., we find Ish-bosheth = Eshbaal (Ishbaal) in 1Ch 8:33; 9:39. The reason for this was reluctant to pronounce the word Ba‘al, which had by their time been associated with Canaanitic forms of worship. In 2Sa 11:21 Septuagint, Lucian, has "Jeroboal," which Septuagint, Codex Vaticanus, has corrupted to "Jeroboam." Compare MERIB-BAAL; ">MEPHIBOSHETH; and see Ginsburg, New Massoretico-Critical Text of the Hebrew Bible, Intro, 400 ff. For a New Testament case compare Ro 11:4 and see Sanday and Headlam at the place.
Written by David Francis Roberts
Jerubbesheth:
(contender with the shame) a name of Gideon (2 Samuel 11:21).
Jerubbaal:
jer-u-ba'-al, je-rub'-a-al (yerubba‘al, "let Baal contend"): The name given to Gideon by his father, Joash, and the people in recognition of his destruction of the altar of Baal at Ophrah (Jud 6:32). For this name the form "Jerubbesheth" (2Sa 1:21) was substituted after the analogy of "Ishbosheth" and "Mephibosheth," in which bosheth, the Hebrew word for "shame," displaced the word ba‘al, no doubt because the name resembled one given in honor of Baal.
