Ἀφαρσαῖοι ) , the name of a tribe removed along with the Apharsachites (q.v.) to Samaria by the king of Assyria, and forming one of the opponents of the Jews after the captivity ( Ezra 4:9). Hiller ( Onomnast. ) regards them as the Parrhasii, a tribe of Eastern Media, and Gesenius ( Thes. Heb. p. 143) thinks they are the Persians, to whose name theirs certainly bears a much greater affinity, especially in the prolonged form of the latter found in Daniel 6:29 (Chald. Parsaya', פִּרְסָיָא ). The presence of the proper name of the Persians in Ezra 1:1; Ezra 4:3, must throw some doubt. upon Gesenius' conjecture; but it is very possible that the Local name of the tribe may have undergone alteration, while the official and general name was correctly given.
