<p> <strong> HYDASPES </strong> . A river mentioned in Jdt 1:6 as on the Medo-Babylonian frontier. The name is probably the result of a confusion with the well-known [[Hydaspes]] in [[India]] (now the <em> Jatam </em> ). In view of the mythical character of the [[Book]] of Judith, speculation as to the identity of this river is likely to remain fruitless. However, there may be a suggestion in the fact that the Syr. version reads <strong> [[Ulai]] </strong> (wh. see). </p> <p> W. M. Nesbit. </p> | <p> <strong> HYDASPES </strong> .

<p> ( ῾Υδάσπης ), a river noticed in [[Judith]] 1, 6, in connection with the [[Euphrates]] and Tigris, mentioned by Arrian (Ind. 4) and [[Strabo]] (15, 697), which flowed westwards into the Indus, and is now called Jelam (Rawlinson, Herod. i, 558). The well-known [[Hydaspes]] of [[India]] is too remote to accord with the other localities noticed in the context. We may perhaps identify it with the Choaspes or Euloeus of Susiana, which was called Hydaspes by the Romans (Voss, ad Justin. ii, 14). </p> | |||
