An Arab who, with Sanballat of Horonaim, and Tobiah the servant, the Ammonite, opposed Nehemiah in repairing Jerusalem. (Nehemiah 2:19; Nehemiah 6:1, etc.) Frustrated in this as well as in the plot against Nehemiah's life. It was for the interest of the wandering marauders of the frontier of Palestine to prevent its restoration as a kingdom.
