The term is not a personal name but rather a designation for a position of authority, likely the chief cupbearer or a high-ranking official in the Assyrian army. The Rabshakeh served as a spokesperson and negotiator, often involved in diplomatic and military communications.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In the ancient Near East, the title "Rabshakeh" was used for a senior official who held significant influence and responsibility, often serving as a chief advisor or envoy for the king. The Rabshakeh would have been well-versed in political and military matters, capable of negotiating and delivering messages on behalf of the Assyrian empire. This role was crucial during times of war and diplomacy, as seen in the biblical accounts where the Rabshakeh interacts with the leaders of Judah.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>from <a href="/hebrew/7227b.htm">rab</a> and <a href="/hebrew/8248.htm">shaqah</a><br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>perhaps "chief of the officers," an Assyr. military leader<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>Rabshakeh (16).<p><div align="center"><span class="smalltext"><iframe width="100%" height="85" scrolling=no src="/nasec.htm" frameborder=0 cellpadding=0></iframe></span></div><div class="vheading2">Strong's Exhaustive Concordance</div>Rabshakeh <p>From <a href="/hebrew/7227.htm">rab</a> and <a href="/hebrew/8248.htm">shaqah</a>; chief butler; Rabshakeh, a Bab.
