Sepharvaim

"Taken by Sargon, king of Assyria (2 Kings 17:24; 18:34; 19:13;" "Isa. 37:13). It was a double city, and received the common name" "Sepharvaim, i.e., "the two Sipparas," or "the two booktowns." The Sippara on the east bank of the Euphrates is now called "Abu-Habba; that on the other bank was Accad, the old capital of" "Sargon I., where he established a great library. (See" [566]SARGON.) The recent discovery of cuneiform inscriptions at "Tel el-Amarna in Egypt, consisting of official despatches to" Pharaoh Amenophis IV. and his predecessor from their agents in "Palestine, proves that in the century before the Exodus an" active literary intercourse was carried on between these "nations, and that the medium of the correspondence was the" Babylonian language and script. (See [567]KIRJATH-SEPHER.)
