Sheshach
text:
Sheshach, whose king is mentioned in the Hebrew Bible in Jeremiah 25:26, is supposed to be equivalent to Babel (Babylon), according to a secret mode of writing practiced among the Jews of unknown antiquity, which consisted in substituting the last letter of the Hebrew alphabet for the first, the next to last one for the second, and so on. Thus the letters sh, sh, ch become b, b, l. This code is called the Atbash Cipher and was utilized to decrypt. The city "Sheshach" does not appear on any map n
