Tabeal, also spelled Tabeel, is used of two different men. One was the father of a man whom the kings of Syria and Israel plotted to install on Judah's throne in place of Ahaz, a scheme Isaiah confronted with his sign of Immanuel (Isaiah 7:1-6). The other was a Persian-appointed official in Samaria who joined in writing a letter to King Artaxerxes opposing the rebuilding of Jerusalem's walls (Ezra 4:7-8).
