Χαλδαῖος, Χαλδαίου, , a Chaldaean; γῆ Χαλδαίων the land of the Chaldaeans, Chaldaea: Acts 7:4, where a reference to Genesis 11:28, 31 and seems to show that southern Armenia is referred to. The different opinions of other interpreters are reviewed by Dillmann on Genesis (3te Aufl.), p. 223f; (cf. Schrader in Riehm under the word; Sayce in Encycl. Brit., under the word Babylonia).
