Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There are no direct corresponding Strong's Greek entries for Jishbak, as it is a proper noun specific to the Hebrew genealogical context and does not have a direct Greek equivalent in the New Testament.

Usage: The name Jishbak appears in the context of genealogical records in the Hebrew Bible. It is used to identify one of the sons of Abraham through his concubine Keturah.

Context: Jishbak is mentioned in the genealogical listings found in the Book of Genesis. He is one of the six sons born to Abraham and Keturah, as recorded in Genesis 25:1-2. The passage states: "Abraham had taken another wife, named Keturah, and she bore him Zimran, Jokshan, Medan, Midian, Ishbak, and Shuah." Jishbak's name appears in the context of the broader narrative of Abraham's descendants, highlighting the expansion of Abraham's lineage beyond Isaac and Ishmael. The descendants of Keturah, including Jishbak, are often associated with various tribes and peoples in the Arabian Peninsula. However, specific details about Jishbak's life and his descendants are not provided in the biblical text, leaving his historical and cultural impact largely unexplored within the scriptures.
