Magor-missabib

 
Symbolical name given by God through Jeremiah to Pashur the priest who had beaten him and placed him in the stocks (Jer. 20:1-3). In the margin it is “fear round about.” The same Hebrew is translated “fear on every side” in Jeremiah 20:10. God would make Pashur a terror to himself and to all his friends. He had prophesied lies, and should die in Babylon (Jer. 20:6).
