Tharsis ; Old Latin Thiras et Rasis ): The children of Rasses are mentioned with Put, Lud and the children of Ishmael as having been subdued by Holofernes ( Judith 2:23 ).

Tharsis (= Tarsus) is meant, others Rosh ( Ezekiel 38:2 , Ezekiel 38:3; Ezekiel 39:1 ), others Rhosos, a mountain range and city South from Anunus, on the Gulf of Issus.
