ETHIOPIA - E>@ - (burnt faces). The country which the Greeks and Romans described as "AEthiopia" and the Hebrews as "Cush" lay to the south of Egypt, and embraced, in its most extended sense, the modern Nubia, Sennaar, Kordofan and northern Abyssinia , and in its more definite sense the kingdom of Meroe. kjv@Ezekiel:29:10) The Hebrews do not appear to have had much practical acquaintance with Ethiopia itself, though the Ethiopians were well known to them through their intercourse with Egypt. The inhabitants of Ethiopia were a Hamitic race. kjv@Genesis:10:6) They were divided into various tribes, of which the Sabeans were the most powerful. The history of Ethiopia is closely interwoven with that of Egypt. The two countries were not unfrequently united under the rule of the same sovereign. Shortly before our Saviour’s birth a native dynasty of females, holding the official title of Candace (Plin. 6:35), held sway in Ethiopia, and even resisted the advance of the Roman arms. One of these is the queen noticed in kjv@Acts:8:27)

ETHIOPIAN - E>@ - properly "Cushite," kjv@Jeremiah:13:23) used of Zerah, ( kjv@2Chronicles:14:9)

(8), and Ebed-melech. kjv@Jeremiah:38:7 kjv@Jeremiah:38:10-12 kjv@Jeremiah:39:16)

ETHIOPIAN EUNUCH, THE - E>@ - a Jewish proselyte, kjv@Acts:8:26) etc., who was treasurer of Candace queen of Ethiopia, but who was converted to Christianity on a visit to Jerusalem, through philip the evangelist. Nothing is known of him after his return to Ethiopia.

ETHIOPIAN WOMAN - E>@ - The wife of Moses is to described in kjv@Numbers:12:1) She is elsewhere said to have been the daughter of a Midianite, and in consequence of this some have supposed that the allusion is to another wife whom Moses married after the death of Zipporah.

Ethiopia @ country of burnt faces; the Greek word by which the Hebrew Cush is rendered kjv@Genesis:2:13; kjv@2Kings:19:9; kjv@Esther:1:1; kjv@Job:28:19; kjv@Psalms:68:31 kjv@Psalms:87:4), a country which lay to the south of Egypt, beginning at Syene on the First Cataract kjv@Ezekiel:29:10 kjv@Ezekiel:30:6), and extending to beyond the confluence of the White and Blue Nile. It corresponds generally with what is now known as the Soudan (i.e., the land of the blacks). This country was known to the Hebrews, and is described in kjv@Isaiah:18:1; kjv@Zephaniah:3:10. They carried on some commercial intercourse with it kjv@Isaiah:45:14). Its inhabitants were descendants of Ham kjv@Genesis:10:6; kjv@Jeremiah:13:23; kjv@Isaiah:18:2, "scattered and peeled," A.V.; but in R.V., "tall and smooth"). Herodotus, the Greek historian, describes them as "the tallest and handsomest of men." They are frequently represented on Egyptian monuments, and they are all of the type of the true negro. As might be expected, the history of this country is interwoven with that of Egypt. Ethiopia is spoken of in prophecy kjv@Psalms:68:31 kjv@Psalms:87:4; kjv@Isaiah:45:14; kjv@Ezekiel:30:4-9; kjv@Daniel:11:43; kjv@Nahum:3:8-10; kjv@Habakkuk:3:7; kjv@Zephaniah:2:12).

Ethiopian eunuch @ the chief officer or prime minister of state of Candace (q.v.), queen of Ethiopia. He was converted to Christianity through the instrumentality of Philip (Act 8:27). The northern portion of Ethiopia formed the kingdom of Meroe, which for a long period was ruled over by queens, and it was probably from this kingdom that the eunuch came.

Ethiopian woman @ the wife of Moses kjv@Numbers:12:1). It is supposed that Zipporah, Moses' first wife kjv@Exodus:2:21), was now dead. His marriage of this "woman" descended from Ham gave offence to Aaron and Miriam.
