Nebushazban (Babylonian officer, chief eunuch under Nebuchadnezzar)
A Babylonian personal name meaning 'Nebo, deliver me!' (from Akkadian Nabû-šêzibanni), belonging to an officer in Nebuchadnezzar's army. Jeremiah 39:13 lists him among the officials who released Jeremiah from the court of the guard after Jerusalem's fall. He held the title רַב־סָרִיס ('chief of the eunuchs' or 'chief officer'), indicating high rank in the Babylonian administration. The name reflects typical Babylonian piety, invoking the god Nebo for protection—ironic in a context where this 'deliverer god' served as agent of YHWH's judgment against Jerusalem.

1. sense 1 — Personal name of a high-ranking Babylonian official who served under Nebuchadnezzar during the siege and capture of Jerusalem in 586 BC. Jeremiah 39:13 mentions him alongside other officers who showed favor to Jeremiah, arranging his release rather than his deportation. His title רַב־סָרִיס suggests he commanded the royal eunuchs or served as a chief administrative officer. The name's theophoric element (Nebo-) reveals his religious identity even as he unwittingly fulfills YHWH's purposes. Translators simply transliterate: English 'Nevushazban,' Spanish 'Nevushazbán,' preserving the Babylonian name in its Hebrew form. 1×
