Ezra 4:17 The king sent word to Reum Beelteem, and Samsai, the scribe, and to the rest that were in their council, inhabitants of Samaria, and to the rest beyond the river, sending greeting and peace.

Greeting. Protestants, "peace, and at such a time," which has no great meaning. (Haydock) See ver. 10.
