The meaning of Arioch in the Bible
(From Easton's Bible Dictionary)
lion-like, venerable.
A king of Ellasar who was confederate with Chedorlamer (Genesis 14:1,9). The tablets recently discovered by Mr. Pinches (see CHALDEA) show the true reading is Eri-Aku of Larsa. This Elamite name meant "servant of the moon-god." It was afterwards changed into Rimsin, "Have mercy, O moon-god." Daniel 2:14.
