<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> | |||
