Chushan-rishathaim
Cush
of
double
wickedness
,
or
governor
of
two
presidencies
,
the
king
of
Mesopotamia
who
oppressed
Israel
in
the
generation
immediately
following
Joshua
(
Judg
. 3:8).
We
learn
from
the
Tell-el-Amarna
tablets
that
Palestine
had
been
invaded
by
the
forces
of
Aram-naharaim
(A.V., "
Mesopotamia
")
more
than
once
,
long
before
the
Exodus
,
and
that
at
the
time
they
were
written
the
king
of
Aram-naharaim
was
still
intriguing
in
Canaan
.
It
is
mentioned
among
the
countries
which
took
part
in
the
attack
upon
Egypt
in
the
reign
of
Rameses
III
. (
of
the
Twentieth
Dynasty
),
but
as
its
king
is
not
one
of
the
princes
stated
to
have
been
conquered
by
the
Pharaoh
,
it
would
seem
that
he
did
not
actually
enter
Egypt
.
As
the
reign
of
Rameses
III
.
corresponds
with
the
Israelitish
occupation
of
Canaan
,
it
is
probable
that
the
Egyptian
monuments
refer
to
the
oppression
of
the
Israelites
by
Chushan-rishathaim
.
Canaan
was
still
regarded
as
a
province
of
Egypt
,
so
that
,
in
attacking
it
Chushan-rishathaim
would
have
been
considered
to
be
attacking
Egypt
.
From:
Hitchcock's Bible Names Dictionary (late 1800's)
Chushan-rishathaim
,
blackness
of
iniquities
