The Assyrian king or satrap, under whose direction the territory of the ten tribes was peopled by emigrants from beyond the Euphrates, 2Ki 17:24 ; Ezr 4:10 . Some identify him with Esar-haddon, and some with Shalmaneser. Ezra styles him “great and noble;” but no other trace of him is left.<\/p>\n
(Chald. Osnappar’, ; some MISS. , Asenappar’, whence Sept. v. r. ; Vulg. Asenaphar), the name of an Assyrian king or satrap who is said to have planted colonies (probably from some distant conquered territory) in Samaria, or perhaps other parts of Palestine and Syria (Ezr 4:10). On the supposition that a king of Assyria is meant, and by comparison with 2Ki 17:24, many (with Grotius) identify him with Shalmaneser; others (as Rosenmuller, Alterth. I, ii, 109; Hengstenberg, Authent. Dan. p. 178) understand Esarhaddon (comp. Ezr 4:2; so Michaelis; but’ see on the contrary Herzfeld, Gesch. d. Volkes Israel, i, 473); while most of the Jewish interpreters assume Sennacherib to be meant. He was probably, however, only a satrap of some of the Assyrian provinces (B.C. cir. 712), and the epithet applied to him in the passage in Ezra , the great and the excellent, i.e. most eminent [comp. , Luk 1:3]; Auth. Vers. “the great and noble”) is apparently the usual title of persons in that capacity, being indeed perhaps the translation of the official title Osnapper itself (=Sanscrit osna, great; = Sanscrit para, noble; see Luzath, Le Sanscritisme de la lngue Assyrienne, p. 38-40). Bohlen, on the other hand, compares Sanscrit Senapa, leader of an army ; according to which the name would become merely a designation of an Assyrian general.<\/p>\n
probably the same as Assur-bani-pal (Sardanapalos of the Greeks), styled the “great and noble” (Ezra 4:10<\/span>), was the son and successor (B.C. 668) of Esar-haddon (q.v.). He was “luxurious, ambitious, and cruel, but a magnificent patron of literature.” He formed at Nineveh a library of clay tablets, numbering about 10,000. These are now mostly in the British Museum. They throw much light on the history and antiquities of Assyria.<\/p>\n Assur-bani-pal was a munificent patron of literature, and the conqueror of Elam. Towards the middle of his reign his empire was shaken by a great rebellion headed by his brother in Babylon. The rebellion was finally put down, but Egypt was lost, and the military power of Assyria was so exhausted that it could with difficulty resist the hordes of Kimmerians who poured over Western Asia. (See NINEVEH<\/span>)<\/p>\n “The great and noble” (Ezr 4:10). He planted the Cuthaeans, etc., in Samaria, after the deportation of the Israelites. He is either Esarhaddon, as Ezr 4:2 implies, or some able general under him who effected the plantation = Asardanaper = Esarhaddon.<\/p>\n ASNAPPER.See Osnappar.<\/p>\n as-naper. See OSNAPPAR.<\/p>\n Asnapper, the name of the king, or possibly Assyrian satrap, who sent the Cuthean colonies into Palestine (Ezr 4:10). Taking him for king of Assyria, he is generally identified with Esarhaddon, although some believe the name to denote Salmanezer. The title (‘most noble’) which is given to him belonged to the satraps.<\/p>\n [Asnap’per]<\/p>\n One called ‘great and noble’ who brought colonists from Assyria to Samaria.

Mentioned in Ezr 4:10 as the person who settled the Cutheans in the cities of Samaria. He was probably a general of Esarhaddon. (B.C. 712).<\/p>\n the king of Assyria, who sent the Cutheans into the country belonging to the ten tribes, Ezr 4:10. Many take this prince to be Shalmaneser; but others, with more probability, think him to be Esar- haddon.<\/p>\n ASNAPPER The Assyrian king or satrap, under whose direction the territory of the ten tribes was peopled by emigrants from beyond the Euphrates, 2Ki 17:24 ; Ezr 4:10 .
