# Gaal ... Ebed
See how you translated these names in [Judges 9:26](../09/26.md).
# Who is Abimelek, and who is Shechem, that we should serve him?
Gaal uses a question to emphasize that the people of Shechem should not serve Abimelek. Alternate translation: "We should not serve Abimelek!" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-rquestion]])
# Who is Abimelek, and who is Shechem, that we should serve him?
Both of these questions means the same thing. Gaal refers to Abimelek as "Shechem" because Abimelek's mother was from Shechem. Alternate translation: "We should not serve Abimelek, that is, Shechem!" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-parallelism]] and [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-rquestion]])
"We should not serve Abimelek, that is, Shechem!"
# Is he not the son of Jerub-Baal? Is Zebul not his overseer?
Gaal uses a question to emphasize that the people of Shechem should not serve Abimelek. Alternate translation: "He is just the son of Jerub-Baal, and Zebul is just his overseer." (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-rquestion]])
"He is just the son of Jerub-Baal, and Zebul is just his overseer."
# overseer
Zebul oversaw Abimelek's slaves, servants, and laborers.
# Jerub-Baal
This is another name for Gideon. See how you translated this in [Judges 6:32](../06/32.md).
# Zebul
This is the name of a man. (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/translate-names]])
This is the name of a man.
# Serve the men of Hamor, Shechem's father
Gaal means the people of Shechem should serve those who descended from Hamor, that is, those who are truly Canaanites, and not serve someone whose father was an Israelite.
# Why should we serve Abimelek?
Gaal uses a question to emphasize that the people of Shechem should not serve Abimelek. Alternate translation: "We should not serve Abimelek!" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-rquestion]])
