It is composed of a single village, Jebel, and also included the village of Pădureni until 2004, when it was split off to form a separate commune. Jebel was first mentioned in papal tithes in 1334 under the name Zephel. In 1401, the local nobleman Nicolae Trentul had a fortress here, which had to be demolished later, and in 1425 the fortress was rebuilt in the nearby forest. At that time it had the right to organize fairs and owned several floating mills on Timiș River. In 1479 it was sold to Miklós and Jakab Bánffy.
