In Mandaeism , Shamish or Šamiš (Classical Mandaic : ࡔࡀࡌࡉࡔ ) is the Mandaic name for the Sun .[1] classical planets (Classical Mandaic : ࡔࡅࡁࡀ , romanized: šuba lit. Ruha in the World of Darkness .[2] [3]
Etymology
[ edit ]
Shamish's name is derived from š-m-š , the Semitic root for 'sun'. Shamish is also cognate with the Akkadian Šamaš .[4]
Associations and comparisons
[ edit ]
Shamish is associated with the uthras Yawar-Ziwa (Dazzling Light) and Simat-Hiia (Treasure of Life). He is also identified with the uthra Yurba , who is described in detail in chapter 52 of the Mandaean Book of John [5]
In the Right Ginza Yazuqaeans (i.e., Zoroastrians ) are associated with Shamish, an allusion to Mithra .[6]
According to Iraqi-American poet Lamia Abbas Amara , "[Mandaean] priests have long beards and never cut their hair because they wish to look like Šamiš, the sun. Power resides in hair, like the sun’s rays."[7] : 33
