<p> <strong> CHELOD </strong> . Jdt 1:6 b reads, not as AV [Note: Authorized Version.] and RV [Note: Revised Version.] ‘many nations of the sons of [[Chelod]] assembled themselves to battle,’ but ‘there came together many nations unto the array (or ranks) of the sons of Cheleul.’ It is not certain whether the ‘many nations’ are allies of [[Nebuchadrezzar]] or of Arphaxad, or whether they come to help or to fight the ‘sons of Chelod.’ Probably Jdt 1:6 b summarizes v. Jdt 1:6 a; hence ‘sons of Chelod’ should be Nebuchadrezzar’s army. But he is, in Jth., king of Assyrians, not Chaldsæans. No probable conjecture as to Aram. [Note: Aramaic.] original has been made. </p>

<p> ( '''''Χελεούδ''''' v. r. '''''Χελεούλ''''' , Vulg. omits, old Lat. ver. ''Chelleuth,'' Syr. "Chaldaeans"). "Many nations of the sons of Chelod" were among those who obeyed the summons of [[Nabuchodonosor]] to his war with [[Arphaxad]] (&nbsp;Judith 1:6). The word is apparently corrupt (see Fritzsche, ''Exeg. Handb.'' in loc.). Simonis suggests '''''Χαλών''''' , i.e. [[Calneh]] perh. ''Ctesiphon.'' Ewald ''(Gesch. Isr.'' III, 2:543) conjectures it to be a nickname for the ''Syrians,'' "'sons of the mole" ( '''''חֹלֵר''''' , choled '''''´''''' ). </p>
