Sebam
Description
Coolness; fragrance, a town in Reuben, in the territory of Moab, on the east of Jordan (Joshua 13:19 ">Josh. 13:19); called also Shebam and Shibmah (Numbers 32:3 ">Num. 32:3, Numbers 32:38 ">38). It was famous for its vines (Isaiah 16:9 ">Isa. 16:9; Jeremiah 48:32 ">Jer. 48:32). It has been identified with the ruin of Sumieh, where there are rock-cut wine-presses. This fact explains the words of the prophets referred to above. It was about 5 miles east of Heshbon.
