Matthias Ephlias〔Fergus, ''The History of the Jewish People in the Age of Jesus Christ (175 B.C. - A.D. 135)'' p.p.45-6〕 ((ギリシア語:Ματθίας ό Ήφλίον), ''Ήφλίον'' ''Ephlias'' was his Greek epithet,〔Fergus, ''The History of the Jewish People in the Age of Jesus Christ (175 B.C. - A.D. 135)'' p.p.45-6〕 flourished second half of the 2nd century BC and the first half of the 1st century BC) was an ethnic Jew living in Jerusalem. The meaning of Matthias' epithet is obscure. His epithet could mean ‘Handsome’ from the Hebrew language〔Josephus, ''Flavius Josephus: translation and commentary'' p.8〕 or ‘son of Ephesus’ from the Greek language,〔Josephus, ''Flavius Josephus: translation and commentary'' p.p.7-8〕 as he was sometimes known as ‘Matthias of Ephesus’.〔Josephus, ''Flavius Josephus: translation and commentary'' p.p.7-8〕 For Matthias to obtain his epithet reveals he may have been a distinguished Jew.〔Josephus, ''Flavius Josephus: translation and commentary''〕 Matthias was one of the nine children born to Simon Psellus.〔Josephus, ''Flavius Josephus: translation and commentary'' p.p.7-8〕 Matthias came from a wealthy family of priestly descent. His father served as a priest in the Temple in Jerusalem. Through his father, Matthias belonged to the priestly order of the Jehoiarib, which was the first of the twenty four-orders of Priests in the Temple in Jerusalem.〔Fergus, ''The History of the Jewish People in the Age of Jesus Christ (175 B.C. - A.D. 135)'' p.p.45-6〕 Matthias became a Priest serving in the Temple in Jerusalem and married the daughter of High Priest Jonathon.〔Josephus, ''Flavius Josephus: translation and commentary'' p.p.7-8〕 There is a possibility that Jonathon may have been Alexander Jannaeus, the High Priest and Hasmonean ruler who governed Judea from 103 BC-76 BC who was the second husband of Salome Alexandra.〔Reader’s Digest, ''Reader’s Digest: Jesus and His Times'' p.54〕 Alexander Jannaeus was also known as Jonathon.〔Fergus, ''The History of the Jewish People in the Age of Jesus Christ (175 B.C. - A.D. 135)'' p.p.45-6〕 His unnamed Jewish wife bore him a son, Matthias Curtus.〔Josephus, ''Flavius Josephus: translation and commentary'' p.9〕 Through his son, Matthias was an ancestor of the Roman Jewish Historian of the 1st century, Flavius Josephus.〔Josephus, ''Flavius Josephus: translation and commentary''〕 ==References== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Matthias Ephlias」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
