Hastings' Dictionary of the Bible
ENEMESSAR . Name of a king of Assyria in Gr. MSS of Tob 1:2 , where the Syriac and Lat. give Shalmaneser , who is probably meant. The corruption is best accounted for by the loss of Sh and l and the transposition of m and n; but naturally many explanations may be offered without conviction.
