However, related Greek terms might include those that refer to regions or peoples, such as Ἐθνοί (ethnoi) for nations or peoples, though this is a broader term. Usage: This term is used to denote an individual or group associated with Sheba, a region or people mentioned in the Hebrew Bible. Context: The term "Shebaite" refers to an individual or group originating from or associated with Sheba. Sheba is a name that appears in various contexts within the Hebrew Bible, often associated with wealth and trade. The most notable mention of Sheba is in the account of the Queen of Sheba's visit to King Solomon, where she brings gifts and spices, highlighting the region's prosperity and significance in trade routes (1 Kings 10:1-13; 2 Chronicles 9:1-12). The Shebaites, therefore, are likely to be people from this region, known for their involvement in commerce and possibly their wisdom and wealth. The term is used to identify the lineage or geographical origin of individuals in biblical genealogies and narratives.
