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

Usage: The term Tseboim is used in the Hebrew Bible to denote a geographical location, specifically one of the cities in the plain of Jordan, associated with the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah. It is mentioned in the context of the destruction of these cities.

Context: Tseboim is one of the five cities of the plain mentioned in the account of the destruction of Sodom and Gomorrah. It is listed alongside Admah, Zeboiim, Sodom, and Gomorrah. The city is noted for its association with the sinful behavior that led to divine judgment. In Genesis 14:2, Tseboim is mentioned in the context of the war of the kings, where it is allied with Sodom, Gomorrah, Admah, and Bela (Zoar) against Chedorlaomer and his allies. The city is also referenced in Deuteronomy 29:23, where it is used as a symbol of desolation and divine wrath, alongside Sodom and Gomorrah. The Berean Standard Bible (BSB) translates these references as follows:

Genesis 14:2: "that they made war with Bera king of Sodom, Birsha king of Gomorrah, Shinab king of Admah, Shemeber king of Zeboiim, and the king of Bela (that is, Zoar)."
Deuteronomy 29:23: "All its land will be a burning waste of salt and sulfur, nothing planted, nothing sprouting, no vegetation growing on it. It will be like the destruction of Sodom and Gomorrah, Admah and Zeboiim, which the LORD overthrew in His fierce anger."
