(Heb. Tsori', צָרְעַי, a patronymic; Sept. Σαραϊ v v.r. ῾Ησαρί ; Vulg. Sarai; A.V. "Zorites"), the designation apparently of the inhabitants of Zorah (q v.), mentioned in 1 Chronicles 2:54 as descended from Salma the brother of Shobal, and hence classed with the descendants of the latter the "Zareathites and the Eshtaulites" (1 Chronicles 2:53).
