Toparchy (ISBE)

DIC dictionary-entry · status:draft · license:PD

tō´par - ki , top´ar - ki ( τοπαρχία , toparchı́a ): the King James Version renders this Greek word by "government" in 1 Maccabees 11:28 (the King James Version margin and the Revised Version (British and American) "province"). It denotes a small administrative district corresponding to the modern Turkish Nahieh , administered by a Mudı̄r . Three such districts were detached from the country of Samaria and added to Judea. Elsewhere ( 1 Maccabees 10:30; 11:34 ) the word used to describe them is nómos . Some idea of the size of these districts may be gathered from the fact that Judea was divided into ten (Pliny v. 14) or eleven ( BJ , III, iii, 5) toparchies.
