Meshech

"Drawing out, the sixth son of Japheth (Gen. 10:2), the founder" "of a tribe (1 Chr. 1:5; Ezek. 27:13; 38:2, 3). They were in all" "probability the Moschi, a people inhabiting the Moschian" "Mountains, between the Black and the Caspian Seas. In Ps. 120:5" the name occurs as simply a synonym for foreigners or "barbarians. "During the ascendency of the Babylonians and" "Persians in Western Asia, the Moschi were subdued; but it seems" probable that a large number of them crossed the Caucasus range "and spread over the northern steppes, mingling with the" "Scythians. There they became known as Muscovs, and gave that" name to the Russian nation and its ancient capital by which they "are still generally known throughout the East"
