Magormissabib. [Ma'gor-mis'sabib]

Symbolical name given by God through Jeremiah to Pashur the priest who had beaten him and placed him in the stocks. Jeremiah 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. Jeremiah 20:6.
