Tibni
(Heb. Tibni’, , perhaps intelligent; Sept. ; Josephus, , Ant. 8:12, 5; Vulg. Thebni), the sixth king of Israel, B.C. 926- 922. After Zimri had burned himself in his palace, there was a division in the northern kingdom, half of the people following Tibni the son of Ginath, and half following Omri (1Ki 16:21-22). Omri was the choice of the army. Tibni was probably put forward by the people of Tirzah, which was then besieged by Omri and his host. The struggle between the contending factions lasted four years (comp. 1Ki 16:15; 1Ki 16:23); but the only record of it is given in the few words of the historian: The people that followed Omri prevailed against the people that followed Tibni the son of Ginath; so Tibii died, and Omiri reigned. The Sept. adds that Tibni was bravely seconded by his brother Joram. But Josephlus knows nothing of this apocryphal addition. SEE ISRAEL, KINGDOM OF.

Tibni
Son of Ginath. After Zimri had burned himself to death half the people followed Tibni, half Omri. The contest lasted four years (1Ki 16:18; 1Ki 16:21-22), and issued in the death of Tibni and in Omri’s accession. The men of Tirzah which Omri besieged probably promoted the cause of Tibni. The Septuagint say Joram his brother helped his cause.

Tibni
tibn (, tibhn; Codex Vaticanus , Thamne, Codex Alexandrinus , Thamn, Lucian , Thabenne): A rival of Omri for the throne of Israel after the death of Zimri (1Ki 16:21 f). This is the only reference to Tibni that has come down to us; a comparison of this passage with the account of Zimri’s death (especially 1Ki 16:15) shows that the length of the struggle was four years.
