( Τω῏ / Ριος ) , a native or inhabitant of the city of Tyre (Ecclesiastes 46:18). The corresponding Heb. word ( צֹרַי , Tsori ) is rendered by the indirect phrase of Tyre in the A. V. ( 1 Kings 7:14;  1 Chronicles 22:4;  2 Chronicles 2:14; Ezra 3, 7;  Nehemiah 13:16), and so likewise the Greek (1 Esdr. 5, 55;  2 Maccabees 4:10;  Acts 12:20).
