Fausets

(See GIDEON.) Jg 6:32 translated, "they (not Joash, but one, for the townsmen generally) called him Jeroboam, saying, Let Baal fight against him, because he hath thrown down his altar." They took up Joash's words: "he that will fight for Baal (seeking to put to death the destroyer of his altar) shall be put to death (himself; let us wait) TILL morning (to see, will Baal avenge his own wrong); let Baal fight for himself." When Baal did Gideon, no harm the title Jerub-Baal, the" Baal fighter," became an honourable one. Besheth, "shame," is substituted for the idol in Jerubbesheth (to comply literally with Ex 23:13; 2Sa 11:21), as in Ishbosheth for Eshbaal (2Sa 2:8 ff; 1Ch 8:33; 9:39). Philo of Bybhs, in his revision of Sanehoniatho, calls him Hierombal, priest of Jeue, or Jahve, or Jehovah.

Hastings

A name given to Gideon (Jg 6:32; 7:1; 8:29,5/type/nheb'>35; 9:1-2,5,16,19,24,28,57). It is = 'Baal strives,' Baal being a name for Jahweh, as in Ishbaal, Meribbaal; it cannot = 'one who strives with Baal,' as Jg 6:32 would suggest. This name was altered to Jerubbesheth (besheth = 'shame') when Baal could no longer be used of Jahweh without offence (2Sa 11:21); cf. Ishbosheth, Mephibosheth.
