STRONGS H5471: Abbreviations
סוֺא proper name, masculine (Greek Version of the LXX Ζηγωρ, A Ζωα, LXX of Lucian (Lag.) Αδραμελεχ τὸν Αἰθίοπα τὸν κατοικοῦντα ἐν Αἰγύπτῳ (!); JosAnt. ix. 14, 1 Σωαν; Vulgate Sua; all accusative), called מֶלֶךְ מִצְרַיִם 2 Kings 17:4, with whom Hoshea had intrigue; possibly= Šab-’-ê, or Sib-’-ê mentioned by Sargon (KBii.54.1.25.26 COTon the passage) as a ruler (apparently) under Pir’u king of Muṣuri; hence SchrCOT l.c. proposes to read סֶוֶא, and, further, identify. Šab-’-ê = סֶוֶא with Šabaku, founder of 25th (Ethiop.) dynasty, compare WiedÄg. Geschichte. 583 f.; very uncertain is Wkl's conjecture of סוא = Sib-’-ê as general of king Pir’u of Muṣri in Northern Arabic (WklMVG 1898, 3 ff.).
