Gill's Notes on the Bible
The copy of the letter that Tatnai, governor on this side the river, and Shetharboznai, and his companions the Apharsachites, which were on this side the river,.... Which is thought by some to be one of the nations mentioned, Ezra 4:9 the name being pretty near alike to two of them; but perhaps might be a distinct colony in those parts Tatnai was governor of:
these sent unto Darius the king; and is as follows.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
Apharsachites, like Apharsites, and Apharsathchites Ezra 4:9, are thought by some to be forms of the word âPersians,â which is applied here generally to the foreign settlers in Samaria. (Others identify the first and the third names with the âParetaceni,â a people on the Medo-Persian border.)
