:(1): ''...and [[Esau]] saw that the daughters of [[Canaan]] pleased not [[Isaac]] his father; so Esau went unto Ishmael, and took unto the wives that he had [[Mahalath]] the daughter of Ishmael Abraham's son, the sister of '''Nebaioth''', to be his wife...''

:(2): ''...Esau took his wives of the daughters of Canaan; [[Adah]] the daughter of Elon the Hittite, and Oholibamah the daughter of Anah, the daughter of Zibeon the Hivite, and Basemath Ishmael's daughter, sister of '''Nebaioth'''...'' (Book of Genesis 36:2-3) [http://www.mechon-mamre.org/e/et/et0136.htm]
Nebaioth is again mentioned as Ishmael's firstborn in the genealogies of the [[Books of Chronicles|First Book of Chronicles]]:
:''...These are their generations: '''the first-born of Ishmael, Nebaioth'''; then Kedar, and Adbeel, and Mibsam, Mishma, and Dumah, Massa, Hadad, and Tema, Jetur, Naphish, and Kedem. These are the sons of Ishmael...'' ([[Books of Chronicles|1 Chronicles]] 1:29-31) [http://www.mechon-mamre.org/e/et/et25a01.htm]
In the Book of [[Isaiah]], Nebaioth (along with his brother [[Kedar]]) is used as a metaphor for gentile nations:
:''... All the flocks of Kedar shall be gathered together unto you, the rams of Nebaioth shall minister unto you; they shall come up with acceptance on my [[Altar#Altars in the Hebrew Bible|altar]], and I will glorify [[Temple in Jerusalem|my glorious house]]...'' ([[Book of Isaiah]] 60:7) [http://www.mechon-mamre.org/e/et/et1060.htm]

Nebaioth's genealogical connection is also mentioned in the [[Sefer haYashar (midrash)|Book of Jasher]]:

==Comments==
Based on similarity of sounds, [[Josephus]], the Jewish historian of the [[Roman Empire|Roman era]], suggested that there was a connection with the historical [[Nabataeans]] of [[Ancient Greece|Hellenistic]] and Roman times (''Jewish Antiquities'' 1.12.4). Though [[Jerome]] followed him and Bible historians have followed Jerome, modern historians do not find any evidence of a connection of Nabataeans with the "tribe of Nbioth".
Classical Arab historians sometimes name Nebaioth as an ancestor of [[Muhammad]] although another tradition names [[Kedar]], another son of Ishmael, as his ancestor.
