Tubieni

Tubie'ni (Τουβιῆνοι; Alex. Τουβεῖνοι; Vulg. Tubiancei). The "Jews called Tubieni" lived about Charax, 750 stadia from a strongly fortified city called Caspis (2 Macc. 12:17). They were doubtless the same who are elsewhere mentioned as living in the towns of Toubion (A.V. "Tobie"), which again is probably the same with the TOB SEE TOB (q.v.) of the Old Test.
