(1) A Levite in the reign of Jehoshaphat whom the king sent to teach in the cities of Judah (2Ch_17:8; טוביּהוּ, ṭōbhı̄yāhū; the Septuagint omits).
(2) One of a party of Jews that came from Babylon to Jerusalem with gold and silver for a crown for Zerubbabel and Joshua, or for Zerubbabel alone (Zec_6:10, Zec_6:14).

(Heb. Tobiyah, טוֹבַיָּה[once (Zec_6:10) in the prolonged form Tobiya'hu, טוֹבַיָּהוּ, goodness of Jehovah), the name of two men. SEE TOBIAH; SEE TOBIAS.
1. (Sept. Τωβίας, but some MSS. omit; Vulg. Thobias.) The eighth named of the nine Levites sent by Jehoshaphat to teach the law in the cities of Judah (2Ch_17:8). . B.C. 910.
2. (Sept. οἱ χρήσιμοι αὐτῆς ; Vulg. Tobias.) Second named of the three or four representative men of the Jewish captives in the time of Zechariah, in whose presence the prophet was commanded to take crowns of silver and gold and put them on the head of Joshua the high-priest (Zec_6:10; Zec_6:14). B.C. 519. Rosenmüller conjectures that he was one of a deputation who came up to Jerusalem from the Jews who still remained in Babylon with contributions of gold and silver for the Temple. But Maurer considers that the offerings were presented by Tobijah and his companions, because the crowns were commanded to be placed in the Temple as a memorial of their visit and generosity. SEE ZECHARIAH.
