Amalekite, a tribe that dwelt in Arabia Petraea, between the Dead Sea and the Red Sea. They were not the descendants of Amalek, the son of Eliphaz, for they existed in the days of Abraham (Genesis 14:7). They were probably a tribe that migrated from the shores of the Persian Gulf and settled in Arabia. "They dwelt in the land of the south...from Havilah until thou comest to Shur" (Numbers 13:29; 1 Samuel 15:7). They were a pastoral, and hence a nomadic race. Their kings bore the hereditary name of Agag (Numbers 24:7; 1 Samuel 15:8). They attempted to stop the Israelites when they marched through their territory (Deuteronomy 25:18), attacking them at Rephidim (Exodus 17:8-13; Compare Deuteronomy 25:17; 1 Samuel 15:2). They afterwards attacked the Israelites at Hormah (Numbers 14:45). We read of them subsequently as in league with the Moabites (Judges 3:13) and the Midianites (Judges 6:3). Saul finally desolated their territory and destroyed their power (1 Samuel 14:48; 15:3), and David recovered booty from them (1 Samuel 30:18-20). In the Babylonian inscriptions they are called Sute, in those of Egypt Sittiu, and the Amarna tablets include them under the general name of Khabbati, or "plunderers".

# Eminent Chinese of the Ch'ing Period/Liu Jui-fên

Layout 2
​LIU Jui-fên 劉瑞芬 (T. 芝田), 1827–1892, Apr. 6, official and diplomat, was a native of Kuei-ch'ih, Anhwei, who assisted in 1862 in the suppression of the Taiping Rebellion, first under Tsêng Kuo-fan [q. v.] and then under Li Hung-chang [q. v.]. During the latter's campaign to save Shanghai he had special charge of the importation of ammunition from Western countries. In 1876 he became salt controller of the Liang-huai region and in the following year intendant of the Su-Sung-Tsai Circuit, Kiangsu. Serving first as judicial commissioner (1882) and then as financial commissioner (1883) of Kiangsi, he was made acting governor of the same province in 1884. In the following year he was appointed minister to England and Russia, and arrived at his post in London early in 1886. Believing that Russia was about to exploit the gold mines at Mo-ho, Heilungkiang, he advised his government to undertake the work, and the suggestion was carried out (1886). In 1887 his portfolio was broadened to include France, Italy and Belgium. When difficulties between Tibet and India arose in 1888, Liu made efforts to resist British military occupation by peaceful negotiation. His term of service as a diplomat having terminated, he returned to China in 1889, and was appointed governor of Kwangtung. Three years later (1892) he died at his post. His collected works were printed in ​1893, under the title 養雲山莊全集 Yang-yün shan-chuang ch'üan-chi.
Liu Jui-fên had six sons. One of them, Liu Shih-hêng 劉世珩 (T. 聚卿, H. 蔥石, 1875–1926), a chu-jên of 1894, was a well-known bibliophile who printed the following collectanea: 玉海堂景宋元本叢書 Yü-hai t'ang ying Sung Yüan pên ts'ung-shu; 聚學軒叢書 Chü-hsüeh hsüan ts'ung-shu (1897–1903); 貴池先哲遺書 Kuei-ch'ih hsien-chê i-shu (1920); and 暖紅室彙刻傳奇 Nuan-hung shih hui-k'o cho'uan-ch'i. The last-mentioned is a collection of famous dramas, and works on dramatics.

# Eminent Chinese of the Ch'ing Period/Liu Liang-tso

Layout 2
​LIU Liang-tso 劉良佐 (T. 明輔), d. 1667, renegade Ming general, was a native of Tatung, Shansi. He was associated first with Kao Chieh [q. v.] under the rebel, Li Tzŭ-ch'êng [q. v.], and later with the Ming brigade general, Huang Tê-kung [q. v.], against Chang Hsien-chung [q. v.]. After the dynasty fell and the Prince of Fu (see under Chu Yu-sung) had set up his court in ​Nanking, Liu Liang-tso with his two former associates and Liu Tsê-ch'ing [q. v.] were called the Four Guardian Generals (四鎭). He was made earl of Kuang-ch'ang (廣昌伯) and assigned to the Anhwei-Honan sector with residence at Lin-huai. Later he was transferred to Hsüchou in northern Kiangsu. In 1645, when the Manchu prince, Dodo [q. v.], came south, Liu Liang-tso surrendered with 100,000 men. He retained office under the Ch'ing and led an expedition to subdue Kiangsu. This province pacified, he went to Peking, was assigned to the Chinese Bordered Yellow Banner, and in 1648 was given the rank of viscount of the second class. For his services with Tantai (see under Yanggûri) in a southern expedition he was made Junior Assistant Chamberlain of the Imperial Bodyguard. In 1661 he was appointed general-in-chief of Kiangnan and Kiangan. Later in the same year he was transferred to Chihli. In 1666 he resigned on account of old age and died the following year. His son, Liu Tsê-han 劉澤涵, inherited his rank of viscount, a rank that was abolished in 1734.

(2.) Heb. nahal, in winter a "torrent," in summer a "wady" or valley (Gen. 32:23; Deut. 2:24; 3:16; Isa. 30:28; Lam. 2:18; Ezek. 47:9).
These winter torrents sometimes come down with great suddenness and with desolating force. A distinguished traveller thus describes his experience in this matter:, "I was encamped in Wady Feiran, near the base of Jebel Serbal, when a tremendous thunderstorm burst upon us. After little more than an hour's rain, the water rose so rapidly in the previously dry wady that I had to run for my life, and with great difficulty succeeded in saving my tent and goods; my boots, which I had not time to pick up, were washed away. In less than two hours a dry desert wady upwards of 300 yards broad was turned into a foaming torrent from 8 to 10 feet deep, roaring and tearing down and bearing everything upon it, tangled masses of tamarisks, hundreds of beautiful palmtrees, scores of sheep and goats, camels and donkeys, and even men, women, and children, for a whole encampment of Arabs was washed away a few miles above me. The storm commenced at five in the evening; at half-past nine the waters were rapidly subsiding, and it was evident that the flood had spent its force." (Comp. Matt. 7:27; Luke 6:49.)
(3.) Nahar, a "river" continuous and full, a perennial stream, as the Jordan, the Euphrates (Gen. 2:10; 15:18; Deut. 1:7; Ps. 66:6; Ezek. 10:15).
(4.) Tel'alah, a conduit, or water-course (1 Kings 18:32; 2 Kings 18:17; 20:20; Job 38:25; Ezek. 31:4).
(5.) Peleg, properly "waters divided", i.e., streams divided, throughout the land (Ps. 1:3); "the rivers [i.e., `divisions'] of waters" (Job 20:17; 29:6; Prov. 5:16).
(6.) Ye'or, i.e., "great river", probably from an Egyptian word (Aur), commonly applied to the Nile (Gen. 41:1-3), but also to other rivers (Job 28:10; Isa. 33:21).
(7.) Yubhal, "a river" (Jer. 17:8), a full flowing stream.
(8.) `Ubhal, "a river" (Dan. 8:2).

It happened that a grievous famine, which lasted for three years, fell upon the land during the earlier half of David's reign at Jerusalem. This calamity was sent "for Saul and for his bloody house, because he slew the Gibeonites." David inquired of the Gibeonites what satisfaction they demanded, and was answered that nothing would compensate for the wrong Saul had done to them but the death of seven of Saul's sons. David accordingly delivered up to them the two sons of Rizpah and five of the sons of Merab (q.v.), Saul's eldest daughter, whom she bore to Adriel. These the Gibeonites put to death, and hung up their bodies before the Lord at the sanctuary at Gibeah. Rizpah thereupon took her place on the rock of Gibeah (q.v.), and for five months watched the suspended bodies of her children, to prevent them from being devoured by the beasts and birds of prey, till they were at length taken down and buried by David.
Her marriage to Abner was the occasion of a quarrel between him and Ishbosheth, which led to Abner's going over to the side of David (2 Sam. 3:17-21).

Ahasuerus There are three kings designated by this name in Scripture. (1.) The father of Darius the Mede, mentioned in Dan. 9:1. This was probably the Cyaxares I. known by this name in profane history, the king of Media and the conqueror of Nineveh.
(2.) The king mentioned in Ezra 4:6, probably the Cambyses of profane history, the son and successor of Cyrus (B.C. 529).
(3.) The son of Darius Hystaspes, the king named in the Book of Esther. He ruled over the kingdoms of Persia, Media, and Babylonia, "from India to Ethiopia." This was in all probability the Xerxes of profane history, who succeeded his father Darius (B.C. 485). In the LXX. version of the Book of Esther the name Artaxerxes occurs for Ahasuerus. He reigned for twenty-one years (B.C. 486-465). He invaded Greece with an army, it is said, of more than 2,000,000 soldiers, only 5,000 of whom returned with him. Leonidas, with his famous 300, arrested his progress at the Pass of Thermopylae, and then he was defeated disastrously by Themistocles at Salamis. It was after his return from this invasion that Esther was chosen as his queen.

Ahava Water, the river (Ezra 8:21) by the banks of which the Jewish exiles assembled under Ezra when about to return to Jerusalem from Babylon. In all probability this was one of the streams of Mesopotamia which flowed into the Euphrates somewhere in the north-west of Babylonia. It has, however, been supposed to be the name of a place (Ezra 8:15) now called Hīt, on the Euphrates, east of Damascus.
