(Ε᾿λιάσις v.r. Ε᾿λιάσεις ), a name given (1 Esdras 9:34) as that of one of the " sons of Maani" who divorced their Gentile wives after the captivity, and corresponding in position to MATTENAI (See MATTENAI) (q.v.) of the Hebrews list (Ezra 10:33); but probably a merely erroneous repetition of ENASIBOS (See ENASIBOS) (q.v.) preceding in the same verse.
