Tirshatha: (always written with the article), the title of the governor of Judea under the Persians, perhaps derived from a Persian root signifying stern, severe, is added as a title after the name of Nehemiah, Ne 8:9; 10:1 and occurs also in three other places. In the margin of the Authorized Version Ezr 2:63; Ne 7:65; 10:1 it is rendered "governor."
