Elishah

The oldest of the four sons of Javan (Gen. 10:4), whose descendants peopled Greece. It has been supposed that Elishah’s descendants peopled the Peloponnesus, which was known by the name of Elis. This may be meant by “the isles of Elishah” (Ezek. 27:7).

(God is salvation), the eldest son of Javan. (Genesis 10:4) The residence of his descendants is described in (Ezekiel 27:7) as the isles of Elishah, whence the Phoenicians obtained their purple and blue dyes. Some connect the race of Elishah with the AEolians, others with Elishah, and in a more extended sense Peloponnesus, or even Hellas.

ELI'SHAH (God is salvation), a son of Javan, who is supposed to have settled upon some islands of the sea. Gen 10:4; Eze 27:7.

ELI'SHAH (God is salvation), THE ISLES OF, from whence Tyre obtained her blue and purple. Eze 27:7. They are generally identified with AEolis, Lesbos, Tenedos, and other islands of the Grecian Archipelago.
