אִבְצָן (Ibzan) – Male given name: "Ibzan" Biblical Context: Ibzan was one of the minor judges of Israel.
Judges 12:8–10 "After him, Ibzan of Bethlehem judged Israel. He had thirty sons and thirty daughters, whom he married outside the country, and he took thirty wives from outside the country for his sons. He judged Israel for seven years. Then Ibzan died and was buried in Bethlehem."
Meaning: The exact meaning of the name Ibzan is not entirely clear. Some scholars link it to roots that might suggest "bright" or "resplendent," although this is uncertain. It comes from the same as H76; splendid; Ibtsan; an Israelite: Ibzan.

He ruled for seven years.
It is mentioned that he was from Bethlehem, although it is not specified which one.
