Magbish, family name or place name
A name appearing in Ezra 2:30, identifying either a family or place associated with returning exiles: 'sons of Magbish.' Interestingly, this name is omitted in the parallel list in Nehemiah 7:33, though Greek manuscripts include it. Scholars debate whether this refers to a family name or a place from which exiles returned. The LXX preserves various forms of the name, showing it was recognized in ancient translations despite the Nehemiah omission.
