Nebuchadrezzar n 1: (Old Testament) king of Chaldea who captured and destroyed Jerusalem and exiled the Israelites to Babylonia (630?-562 BC) [syn: {Nebuchadnezzar}, {Nebuchadnezzar II}, {Nebuchadrezzar}, {Nebuchadrezzar II}]
Nebuchadrezzar =Nebuchadnezzar (Jer. 21:2, 7; 22:25; 24:1, etc.), a nearer approach to the correct spelling of the word.
