Who is this
Oreb was a prince of Midian who, along with another prince named Zeeb, led the Midianite army against Israel during the time of Gideon (Judges 7:25). After Gideon and his 300 men defeated the Midianites, the Ephraimites captured and killed Oreb and Zeeb (Judges 7:25; 8:3). The Ephraimites brought the heads of Oreb and Zeeb to Gideon as a trophy of their victory (Judges 7:25). The rock where Oreb was killed became known as the "rock of Oreb" (Judges 7:25). The defeat of Oreb and Zeeb was a significant victory for Israel and a testament to God's power and deliverance (Psalm 83:11). The prophet Isaiah later used the "rock of Oreb" as a symbol of God's judgment against the Assyrians (Isaiah 10:26).
