Bishlam
bishlam (, bishlam, peaceful (?)): One of three foreign colonists who wrote a letter of complaint against the Jews to Artaxerxes (Ezr 4:7 = 1 Esdras 2:16). In 1 Esdras the reading is Belemus. And in the days of Artaxerxes wrote Bishlam, Mithredath, Tabeel, and the rest of his companions, unto Artaxerxes, king of Persia, etc. (Ezr 4:7). The Septuagint renders Bishlam as en eirene, in peace, as though it were a phrase rather than a proper name; this is clearly an error.

[Bish’lam]
Officer of Artaxerxes in Palestine at the time of the return of Zerubbabel. He wrote against the rebuilding of the city, which resulted in the building of the temple being stopped by the king. Ezr 4:7. It will be seen that in the margin instead of Bishlam is read ‘in peace,’ and this is the reading in the LXX, Arabic, and Syriac Versions.
