Old Testament
Tabeel
A figure mentioned in the context of opposition to the rebuilding of Jerusalem and the Syro-Ephraimite War.
Tabeel is mentioned twice in Scripture, though it is unclear if these references denote the same individual. In Ezra 4:7, he is listed as an official opposing the rebuilding of the temple in Jerusalem. In Isaiah 7:6, the prophet mentions the son of Tabeel as a candidate whom the kings of Syria and Israel intended to install as a puppet ruler over Judah.
