Attharates
a-thara-tez: A title assigned to Nehemiah, probably by a later editor (Neh 8:9). The Septuagint omits the title; the Vulgate (Jerome’s Latin Bible, 390-405 ad) gives Athersatha; the King James Version reads Nehemiah, which is the Tirshatha. Tirshatha is the Persian title for a local or provincial governor (Neh 8:9 = 1 Esdras 9:49). See TIRSHATHA.
