Zibiah
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Zibiah, or Sibia, (Template:Langx; Ṣīḇəyā, transl. "gazelle"[1]) was the royal consort of King Ahaziah of Judah, and the mother of King Jehoash of Judah.[2] She was from Beersheba.[2] She is mentioned only in 2 Kings 12:1 and 2 Chronicles 24:1, both references to her son's accession.
The biblical references give no information about her other than her association with Beersheba and Joash. Zibiah is also a Hebrew feminine given name (compare Aramaic, "Tabitha").
