提哈迦

Tirhakah (Taharqa in Egyptian records) was a pharaoh of the Twenty-fifth Dynasty of Egypt and king of Cush (Nubia), who engaged Sennacherib of Assyria in military conflict during the same campaign in which Hezekiah of Judah was besieged (2 Kings 19:9; Isaiah 37:9). The biblical text records that news of Tirhakah's approach reached Sennacherib while he was threatening Jerusalem. Tirhakah reigned from approximately 690 to 664 BC and is confirmed extensively in Egyptian and Assyrian records as a major political figure of the period.
