Jabesh
Jabesh was the father of Shallum of the Kingdom of Israel according to the Hebrew Bible.
Jabesh is mentioned In the Books of Kings. However, the passage may instead mention a toponym, identifying that Shallum was "the son" of a city called Jabesh. In this view, Shallum may have originated from the Israelite town of Jabesh-Gilead.
The name means "dry" in Hebrew.
