Old Testament
Reba
A Midianite king killed by the Israelites during the conquest of the land of Midian.
Reba was one of the five kings of Midian who were defeated and executed by the Israelites under Moses' command. His death is recorded in Numbers 31:8 as part of the divine judgment against Midian for their role in the incident at Peor. He is later mentioned in Joshua 13:21 as a leader of the Midianites who had been subject to Sihon, king of the Amorites.
