Rab´saris, one of the three Assyrian generals in command of the army which appeared before Jerusalem () [RAB-SHAKEH]. The word means 'chief of the eunuchs,' who is always an officer of high rank and dignity in the Oriental courts; and his cares are not confined to the harem, but many high public functions devolve upon him.
