Ahasuerus ( ə-HAZ-ew-EER-əs; Hebrew: אֲחַשְׁוֵרוֹשׁ, Modern: ʾAḥašvērōš, Tiberian: ʾĂẖašwērōš, commonly Achashverosh; Koine Greek: Ἀσουήρος, romanized: Asouḗros, in the Septuagint; Latin: Assuerus in the Vulgate) is a name applied in the Hebrew Bible to three rulers and to a Babylonian official (or Median king) in the Book of Tobit. It is a transliteration of either Xerxes or Artaxerxes; both are names of multiple Achaemenid dynasty Persian kings.
The name Ahasuerus is derived from the Old Persian name of Xerxes I, Xšayāršā, which means "king of all male; Hero among Kings." It was later borrowed into Hebrew and Latin, traditionally used in English Bibles. In the Book of Esther, Ahasuerus is the name of a king and husband of Esther, who ruled the Achaemenid Empire. The narrative is considered to be fictionalized, with Ahasuerus referring to a fictionalized Xerxes I.
Most scholars identify Ahasuerus with Xerxes I, based on several factors, including the Hebrew name's origin from Persian names for Xerxes I, historical records by Herodotus, and annals from Xerxes I's reign. Other identifications have been made with Artaxerxes I, Cambyses II, and Bardiya.
Ahasuerus is also mentioned in the Book of Ezra, with modern commentators associating him with Xerxes I, Cambyses II, or Bardiya. In the Book of Daniel, Ahasuerus is given as the name of the father of Darius the Mede, commonly identified with Astyages. In the deuterocanonical Book of Tobit, Ahasuerus is named as an associate of Nebuchadnezzar, with some scholars suggesting he might be Cyaxares I of Media.
