Birsha

International Standard Bible Encyclopedia · James Orr and contributors

bur'-sha (birsha`): King of Gomorrah (Ge 14:2), who joined the league against Chedorlaomer. The name is probably corrupt; some have tried to explain it as beresha`, "with wickedness," a name purposely used by the writer in referring to this king.
