James Hastings Dictionary of the Bible: Charaathalan


Subjects in this Topic:

CHARAATHALAN (AV [Note: Authorized Version.] Charaathalar), 1Es_5:36.—A name given to a leader of certain families who returned under Zerubbabel. But ‘Charaathalan leading them and Allar’ is due to some perversion of the original, which has ‘Cherub, Addan, Immer,’ three names of places in Babylonia, from which the return was made (Ezr_2:59; cf. Neh_7:61).
