MAGBISH.—An unknown town, presumably in Benjamin, whose ‘children’ to the number of 156 are said to have returned from the Exile (Ezr_2:30); omitted in the parallel passage Neh_7:33, perhaps identical with Magpiash of Neh_10:20.
Hastings' Dictionary of the Bible
Edited by James Hastings, D.D. Published in 1909


Ezr_2:30. A place seemingly in Benjamin, "freezing." A person "Magpiash" is named as sealing the covenant (Neh_10:20).
Fausset's Bible Dictionary
By Andrew Robert Fausset, co-Author of Jamieson, Fausset and Brown's 1888.


Mag'bish. (congregating). A proper name , in Ezr_2:30, but whether of a man or of a place, is doubtful; probably the latter, as all the names from Ezr_2:20-34, except Elam and Harim, are names of places.
Smith's Bible Dictionary
By Dr. William Smith.Published in 1863


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 (Ezr_2:30). It does not appear in Nehemiah's list (Neh_7:33). Septuagint (Codex Vaticanus), however, has Magebōs. The name is probably identical with Magpiash, ?one who sealed the covenant? (Neh_10:20).

Magbish
(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 (Ezr_2:30). It is omitted in the parallel list (Neh_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 Neh_10:20, where some of the same names are mentioned in a similar connection.
