Subjects in this Topic:
MASH.—One of the sons of Aram, Gen_10:23. The parallel passage, 1Ch_1:17, gives Meshech (wh. see), as also does LXX [Note: Septuagint.] in both passages. But this is wrong, as Meshech was Japhetic. Either Mons Massius is meant, or a region and people in the Syro-Arabian desert corresponding to the ‘desert of Mash’ of the Assyrian inscriptions.
