<p> | <p> (Chald. Apharsaye', אֲפִרְסָיֵא; Sept. Ἀφαρσαῖοι )'','' the name of a tribe removed along with the [[Apharsachites]] (q.v.) to Samaria by the king of Assyria, and forming one of the opponents of the [[Jews]] after the captivity ( Ezra 4:9). Hiller (''Onomnast.'' ) regards them as the ''Parrhasii,'' a tribe of Eastern Media, and [[Gesenius]] (''Thes. Heb.'' p. 143) thinks they are the ''Persians,'' to whose name theirs certainly bears a much greater affinity, especially in the prolonged form of the latter found in Daniel 6:29 (Chald. ''Parsaya', פִּרְסָיָא'' ). The presence of the proper name of the [[Persians]] in Ezra 1:1; Ezra 4:3, must throw some doubt. upon Gesenius' conjecture; but it is very possible that the ''local'' name of the tribe may have undergone alteration, while the official and general name was correctly given. </p> | ||

<p> '''''a''''' -'''''far´sı̄ts''''' ( אפרסיא , <i> ''''''ăphārṣāyē'''''' </i> ): A tribe transferred to | <p> '''''a''''' -'''''far´sı̄ts''''' ( אפרסיא , <i> ''''''ăphārṣāyē'''''' </i> ): [[A]] tribe transferred to Samaria by Asnappar of [[Assyria]] ( Ezra 4:9 ). Rawlinson identifies them with the [[Apharsachites]] (which see), taking Apharsites to be an accidental repetition of the same word. He understands "the Persians" to be meant in both cases. Others identify them with a [[Median]] tribe mentioned in the inscriptions of [[Sennacherib]] as dwellers in the district of Parsua. </p> | ||
