Sebaim; an ethnic group, possibly identical with the Sabeans, tall people from Cush or Arabia
This ethnic designation appears in Isaiah 45:14, where 'the Sebaim, men of stature' are listed alongside Egyptians and Cushites as peoples who will submit to Israel's God. The Septuagint renders this as 'Sabaioi,' suggesting identification with the Sabeans of southern Arabia (Sheba). The phrase 'men of stature' (tall men) emphasizes their impressive physical presence. These were notable trading peoples, and their submission would demonstrate God's universal sovereignty. The variant spelling may represent the same group as the Sabeans, with possible confusion or textual variants affecting the form.

1. sense 1 — An ethnic group, possibly identical with the Sabeans, characterized as tall people. Isaiah 45:14 lists 'the Sebaim, men of stature' among peoples who will acknowledge Israel's God. Spanish 'sabeos' and the parallel with Egypt and Cush suggest these are southern Arabian or possibly African peoples. Their 'stature' emphasizes physical impressiveness, making their submission to Israel's God more significant—even powerful, tall peoples will bow to the one true God. 1×
