ARTACHSCHASCHTHA (אַרְתַּחְשַׁשְׁתְּא). Hebrew
form of Persian Ardeshír
(q.v.), meaning "mighty king."
Artachschaschtha (Gk. Artaxerxes), issued a decree extremely favourable to the Jews, which was
carried by Ezra to Jerusalem. (Ezra vii. 1. xiii. 1.) This
sovereign is the Artaxerxes surnamed Longimanus, or the Long-handed,
from a trifling deformity. Nehemiah was his cup-bearer, and was
permitted by him to return to Jerusalem, with a commission to rebuild
its walls, and to be the governor of Judaea. (An Introduction to the
Critical Study of the Holy Scriptures, Horne, v.2, 1836)
