[[Genesis]] 10:21 Chronicles 1:5Ezekiel 27:1338:2,3Psalm 120:5
<p> <strong> MESHECH. 1 </strong> . The name of a people of [[Asia]] Minor mentioned after <strong> [[Tubal]] </strong> as among the sons of Japbeth ( [[Genesis]] 10:2 ). These two peoples, possibly kindred, appear almost always in conjunction in OT; so even in Isaiah 66:18 , where read ‘Meshech’ instead of ‘that draw the bow’ (the word for ‘bow’ being a supplementary gloss). In Psalms 12:6 [[Meshech]] and <strong> [[Kedar]] </strong> appear as types of barbarous and warlike people, just as Meshech and Tubal are represented in Ezekiel 32:28; Ezekiel 38:2; Ezekiel 39:1 . In the [[Assyrian]] annals the <em> Tabalî </em> and <em> Mushkî </em> , who are undoubtedly the same as Tuhal and Meshech, are found again together (as fierce opponents of [[Assyria]] in the 12th cent. b.c.), the former lying to the north-east of [[Cilicia]] and the latter eastward between them and the Euphrates. The <em> Tibareni </em> and <em> [[Moschi]] </em> of the classical writers must stand for the same two peoples. Ezekiel 27:13 names them as trading in slaves and articles of bronze. </p> <p> <strong> 2 </strong> . In 1 Chronicles 1:17 ‘Meshech’ is written by mistake for ‘Mash’ (cf. Genesis 10:23 ) </p> <p> J. F. M‘Curdy. </p>

<p> (See MESECH.) </p>
<p> COUNTRY OF. [[Meshech]] was the sixth son of Japheth, and is generally mentioned in conjunction with his brother Tubal; and both were first seated in the north-eastern angle of [[Asia]] Minor, from the shores of the Euxine, along to the south of Caucasus; where were the Montes Moschisi, and where, in after times, were the Iberi, Tibareni, and Moschi; near to whom also, or mingled with them, were the Chalybes, who, it is probable, derived their [[Grecian]] appellation from the general occupation of the families of [[Tubal]] and Meshech, as workers in brass and iron, as the inhabitants of the same countries have been in all ages, for the supply of Tyre, Persia, Greece, and Armenia. There appears also to have been in the same neighbourhood, namely, in Armenia, a river and country termed Rosh: for so, Bochart says, the river Araxes is called by the Arabs; and that there was a people in the adjoining country called Rhossi. That passage in Ezekiel , 38, also, which in our Bibles is rendered "the chief prince of Meshech and Tubal," is, in the Septuagint, "the prince of Rosh, Meshech, and Tubal." These Rossi and Moschi, who were neighbours in Asia, dispersed their colonies jointly over the vast empire of Russia; and preserve their names still in those of Russians and Muscovites. </p>
