ABIEZER
1. Descendant of Manasseh (Jos 17:1-2). Although Abiezer’s father is not named, Abiezer is listed with the descendants of his mother’s brother, Gilead (1 Chr 7:18). In Numbers 26:30, Abiezer’s name is shortened to Iezer (KJB “Jeezer”), and the family is called Iezerites (KJB “Jeezerites”). Abiezer’s family, to which Gideon belonged, was the first clan to respond to Gideon’s call to fight the Midianites (Jgs 6:34). Abiezer’s descendants were referred to as Abiezrites (Jgs 6:11, 24, 34; 8:32).
2. Member of Benjamin’s tribe from Anathoth and warrior among David’s mighty men, known as “the thirty” (2 Sm 23:27; 1 Chr 11:28). This Abiezer was commander of the ninth division of the army in the rotation system established by David (1 Chr 27:12).
