Ethba'al. (with Baal). King of Sidon and father of Jezebel. 1 Kings 16:31. Josephus represents him as a king of the Tyrians, as well as of the Sidonians. We may, thus, identify him with Eithobalus, who, after having assassinated Pheles, usurped the throne of Tyre for thirty-two years. The date of Ethbaal's reign may be given as about B.C. 940-908.
