ar´za-reth, ar´sareth (the King James Version, Arsareth): This is the land to which the ten tribes were deported (2 Esdras 13:45). It is described as “another land†lying a year and a half's journey beyond the river, i.e. the Euphrates. It probably answers to the Hebrew ×רץ ×חרת, 'erec ‛ahÌ£ereth (). In Josephus' time the people were still believed to be there in countless numbers (Ant., XI, v, 2).
