JOSHUA BEN PHABI
JOSHUA BEN PHABI (1st century b.c.e.), high priest. According to Josephus, Herod the Great ousted Phabi from office to replace him by *Simeon the son of Boethus, an Alexandrian, and father of Herod's wife Mariamne ii. The house of Phabi (פואבי ,פיאבי) was a well-known priestly family, and at least two other members, both named *Ishmael b. Phabi, served as high priests (Jos., Ant., 15:322).
