Bible Verse Review
  from Treasury of Scripure Knowledge

Magbish: i.e. congregating; crystallizing, [Strong's H4019]. The children of Magbish are not named in our present copies of Nehemiah; but the Alexandrian manuscript of the LXX has the same reading as here. Ezra 2:30

Reciprocal: Nehemiah 7:33 - fifty and two
