Hastings' Dictionary of the Bible [1]
Magbish An unknown town, presumably in Benjamin, whose ‘children’ to the number of 156 are said to have returned from the Exile ( Ezra 2:30 ); omitted in the parallel passage Nehemiah 7:33 , perhaps identical with Magpiash of Nehemiah 10:20 .
Smith's Bible Dictionary [2]
Mag'bish. (Congregating). A proper name , in Ezra 2:30, but whether of a man or of a place, is doubtful; probably the latter, as all the names from Ezra 2:20-34, except Elam and Harim, are names of places.
Fausset's Bible Dictionary [3]
Ezra 2:30. A place seemingly in Benjamin, "freezing." A person "Magpiash" is named as sealing the covenant ( Nehemiah 10:20).
Morrish Bible Dictionary [4]
Ancestor of some who returned from exile. Ezra 2:30 .
Holman Bible Dictionary [5]
Ezra 2:30
Cyclopedia of Biblical, Theological and Ecclesiastical Literature [6]
(Hebrew Magbish', מִגַבַּישׁ , Gathering; Sept. Μαγεβίς ,Vulg. Megbis ) , a man whose descendants (so Clericus, ad loc., who compares the Persian name Megabyzus, Herod. 2:70, 160) to the number of 156 returned from Babylon with Zerubbabel ( Ezra 2:30). It is omitted in the parallel list ( Nehemiah 7:33-34). Most interpreters regard it as the name of a place, probably in Palestine, and if so, doubtless in Benjamin, as the associated names are those of localities in that tribe. But it was perhaps rather another form for that of the Maygpiash (q.v.) of Nehemiah 10:20, where some of the same names are mentioned in a similar connection.
International Standard Bible Encyclopedia [7]
mag´bish ( מגבּיש , maghbı̄sh ; Septuagint: Codex Vaticanus Μαγεβώς , Magebṓs ; Codex Alexandrinus Μααβείς , Maabeı́s ): An unidentified town in Benjamin, 156 of the inhabitants of which are said to have returned from exile with Zerubbabel ( Ezra 2:30 ). It does not appear in Nehemiah's list ( Nehemiah 7:33 ). Septuagint (Codex Vaticanus), however, has Magebōs . The name is probably identical with Magpiash, "one who sealed the covenant" ( Nehemiah 10:20 ).
