I don't have a copy of 4 Esdras in the original. The RSV has: <<Through that region there was a long way to go, a journey of a year and a half, and that country is called Arzareth.>> Where is "Arzareth"? What is the etymology (Greek, Aramaic or Hebrew) of this place name? -Chuck Stevens [SMTP: Charles.Stevens at unisys.com]
