En-eglaih

A locality on the Dead Sea, mentioned along with En-gedi, Ezk 47". It has not been identified, but is not improbably 'A in Fcshkah (Robinson, BRP ii. 489). Tristram "(/3i We Places, 93) would make it 'Ain Hajluh (lictli- hcglah). In any case, it probably lay to the N. towards the mouth of the Jordan. Eglaim of Is 15 is a different place, its initial letter being K, not V, and its situation apparently to the south of the Dead Sea (cf. Davidson on Ezk 47'°). J. A. Srlbie.

ENEMESSAR ('E^-f/ifirirdp).- The name of a king of Assyria, found in Gr. codd. of To 1-, where Heb., Aram., and Lat. codd. all read Shalniane.ser. Shalmaneser is explained by recent Assyriologists to mean 'Salman (the god) is chief; but, in accounting for the form Enemessar, it is possible that the Hebrews interpreted the name to mean ' Esar (or Assur) is peaceful' (cf. Esarhaddon) ; then the Gr. translator capriciously altered ]rha TON ' Esar is peaceful ' to "On pn ' F.

sar is gracious,' toning down the final | to 0 as in llanamel (Jer 32') for Sk pn ' El is gracious. ' Other explanations are : 1. That Enemessar is for Senemessar (sh changed to s, and then to the light breathing, as in Arkeanos for Sargon), I being dropped, and the m and n transposed (.so Pinches). 2. That Shalmaneserdrops the '7i?(wlii<-h was possibly mistaken for the genitive) and then transposes m and n (so Rawlinson). 3.

It is an unrecorded private name of Sargon, for Anuiiiasir = 'the god Ann is gracious' (so Oppert). 4. It is a corruption of Sarru-kinu = Sargon reversed (so Bickell). J. T. Marshall. ENENEUS CE.'Tii.io?, AV Enenius), 1 Es 5».— One of the twelve leaders of the return from Babylon under Zerubbabel. The name is omitted in the parallel list in Ezr 2, which gives only eleven leaders ; but answers to Nahamani, Neh 7'. ENFLAME This is the spelling of mod. edd.
