1. Artaxerxes (Persian king, form I) — The proper noun Artaxerxes (אַרְתַּחְשַׁשְׂתָּא), the first orthographic form of the name of the Persian king under whom Ezra and Nehemiah served. Multilingual evidence confirms a single royal referent: eng 'Artachshasta/Artaxerxes', spa 'Artajerjes/Artaĥshashta', hin 'अर्तक्षस्त/अर्तक्षत्र', arb 'أَرْتَحْشَسْتا', kor '아르다셔스다', swa 'Artashasta'. The two clusters differ only in syntactic context (direct usage with prepositions vs. ketiv/qere variants in square brackets), both referring to the same Persian monarch. 10×
