RABMAG
(Rabʹmag) [possibly, chief prince or magician].
The title of a major official of the Babylonian Empire at the time that Jerusalem was destroyed in 607 B.C.E. The title has been identified on monuments recently excavated. Nergal-sharezer the Rabmag was one of the men in the special tribunal of high Babylonian princes who sat in judgment in Jerusalem’s Middle Gate after the city fell to Nebuchadnezzar and who arranged for Jeremiah’s release from prison.—Jer. 39:3, 13, 14.
