Sibbekay', סַבְּכִי , according to [[Gesenius]] and Furst for סֶבֶךְ יָהּ, thicket [i.e. people] of Jehovah, or [[Jehovah]] is a thicket [i.e. defense]; but rather a weaver, for it is doubtful if the final י in such cases ever stands for the sacred name; Sept.

B.C. 1043. He belonged to one of the principal families of Judah, the Zarhites, or descendants of Zerah, and is called "the Hushathite," probably from an ancestor by the name of [[Hushah]] (q.v.). Josephus ( Ant. 7, 12, 2) calls him "the Hittite," but this is no doubt an error. Sibbecai's great exploit, which gave him a place among the mighty mean of David's army, was his single combat with Saph, or Sippai, the [[Philistine]] giant, in the battle at Gezer, or Gob ( 2 Samuel 21:18; 1 Chronicles 20:4). In 2 Samuel 23:27 his name is written MEBUNNAI by a mistake of the copyist. Josephus says that he slew "many" who boasted that they were of the descent of the giants, apparently reading רבי for ספי in 1 Chronicles 20:4. </p> | <p> SIBBECHAI the HUSHATHITE . Of David's guard (2 Samuel 21:18; 1 Chronicles 27:11), eighth captain for the eighth month, of 24,000 (1 Chronicles 11:29). Of the [[Zarhite]] family of Judah. [[Fought]] singly with [[Saph]] or Sippal, the [[Philistine]] giant in the battle at [[Gezer]] or [[Gob]] (1 Chronicles 20:4).
