2. The youngest son of Hiel, the rebuilder of Jericho, who died for his father’s sin according to Joshua’s prediction (1Ki 16:34; comp. Jos 6:26). B.C. cir. 910.

Segub
segub (, seghubh (Kere), , seghbh (Kethbh); Codex Vaticanus , Zegoub; Codex Alexandrinus , Segoub):
(1) The youngest son of Hiel, the rebuilder of Jericho (1Ki 16:34). The death of Segub is probably connected with the primitive custom of laying foundations with blood, as, indeed, skulls were found built in with the brickwork when the tower of Bel at Nippur was excavated. See GEZER. If the death of the two sons was based on the custom just mentioned, the circumstance was deliberately obscured in the present account. The death of Segub may have been due to an accident in the setting up of the gates. In any event, tradition finally yoked the death of Hiel’s oldest and youngest sons with a curse said to have been pronounced by Joshua on the man that should venture to rebuild Jericho (Jos 6:26).
(2) Son of Hezron and father of Jair (1Ch 2:21).
