ARTAXERXES - A>@ - (the great warrior). The first Artaxerxes is mentioned in kjv@Ezra:4:7) and appears identical with Smerdis, the Magian impostor and pretended brother of Cambyses, who usurped the throne B.C. 522, and reigned eight months. In kjv@Nehemiah:2:1) we have another Artaxerxes. We may safely identify him with Artaxerxes Macrocheir or Longimanus, the son of Xerxces, who reigned B.C. 464-425.

Artaxerxes @ the Greek form of the name of several Persian kings.

(1.) The king who obstructed the rebuilding of the temple kjv@Ezra:4:7). He was probably the Smerdis of profane history.

(2.) The king mentioned in kjv@Ezra:7:1, in the seventh year (B.C. 458) of whose reign Ezra led a second colony of Jews back to Jerusalem, was probably Longimanus, who reigned for forty years (B.C. 464-425); the grandson of Darius, who, fourteen years later, permitted Nehemiah to return and rebuild Jerusalem.
