(Heb. Libni’, , white; Sept. , ), the first-named of the two sons of Gershon, the son of Levi (Exo 6:17; Num 3:18; Num 3:21; 1Ch 6:17; comp. Num 26:58); elsewhere called LAADAN (1Ch 23:7; 1Ch 26:21). B.C. post. 1856. His son is called Jahath (1Ch 6:20; 1Ch 6:43), and his descendants were named LIBNITES (Num 3:21; Num 26:58). In 1Ch 6:29, by some error he is called the son of Mahli and the father of Shimei.

Libni
LIBNI.The eldest son of Gershon, that is to say, the eponym of a principal family of Gershonite Levites, Exo 6:17, Num 3:18, 1Ch 6:17; 1Ch 6:20. In 1Ch 6:29 [Heb. 14], perhaps owing to some dislocation of the text, the name appears as that of the eponym of a family of Merarites. The patronymic Libnites occurs in Num 3:21; Num 26:58. Cf. Ladan.
