Mash

MASH măsh (מַֽשׁ). One of the sons of Aram (Gen 10:23). In the parallel passage, 1 Chronicles 1:17, Meshech is given, and the LXX (A) has Mosoch in both passages, but this name is Japhetic, and therefore Mash is prob. right. Mash is identified by some with the Mons Masius of ancient classical writers.
