Elis´hah, a son of Javan (), who seems to have given name to 'the isles of Elishah,' which are described as exporting fabrics of purple and scarlet to the markets of Tyre (). If the descendants of Javan peopled Greece, we may expect to find Elishah in some province of that country; but no certainty can be arrived at on the subject.
