Hastings' Dictionary of the Bible [1]

SARSECHIM seems to be the name of a Bab. [Note: Babylonian.] official ( Jeremiah 39:3 ), but the versions Nabousachar, Nabousarach, Sarsacheim suggest that the text was early corrupt. There is no known Bab. [Note: Babylonian.] name which exactly corresponds to any of these variants, and it is impossible to identify the person intended.

C. H. W. Johns.

Smith's Bible Dictionary [2]

Sarse'chim. (prince of the eunuchs). One of the generals, of Nebuchadnezzar's army, at the taking of Jerusalem. Jeremiah 39:3. (B.C. 588).

Morrish Bible Dictionary [3]

Name of the 'Rab-saris,' or chief of the eunuchs, who was with Nebuchadnezzar's army at the capture of Jerusalem. Jeremiah 39:3 .

Holman Bible Dictionary [4]

Jeremiah 39:13Jeremiah 39:3

Fausset's Bible Dictionary [5]

One of Nebuchadnezzar's generals at Jerusalem's capture (Jeremiah 39:3).

Cyclopedia of Biblical, Theological and Ecclesiastical Literature [6]

(Heb. Sarsekim', שִׂרְסְכַים , probably prince of the eunuchs; Sept. [with great confusion] Ναβουάχαρ v.r. Ναβουσαρσαχίμ, etc.; Vulg. Sarsachien), one of the generals of Nebuchadnezzar's army at the taking of Jerusalem (Jeremiah 39:3), B.C. 588. He appears to have held the office of chief eunuch, for Rabsaris (q.v.) is probably a title and not a proper name. In Jeremiah 39:13, Nebushasban is called Rab-saris, "chief eunuch," and the question arises whether Nebushasban and Sarsechim may not be names of the same person. Gesenius conjectures (Thesaur. s.v.) that Sarsechim and Rab-saris may be identical, and both titles of the same office. (See Samgar-Nebo).

International Standard Bible Encyclopedia [7]

sar´sḗ - kim , sar - - kim ( שׂרסכים , sarṣekhı̄m ): A prince of Nebuchadnezzar, present at the taking of Jerusalem by Nebuchadnezzar in the 11th year of Zedekiah ( Jeremiah 39:3 ). The versions with their various readings - "Nabousachar" "Nabousarach," "Sarsacheim" - point to a corrupt text. The best emendation is the reading " Nebhōshazibhon " ( = Nabûšêzib - anni , "Nebo delivers me"); this is based on the reading in Jeremiah 39:13 .
