STEPBible TIPNR
Ishbah is mentioned only once in the Bible, in 1Ch 4:17, within the genealogical records of the descendants of Judah. He is identified as the father (ie founder) of Keilah and Eshtemoa, a town allotted to the Levites within the territory of Judah (Jos 21:14), likely named after Ishbah's son or his descendants who settled there.
