_Tsar_ (Vol. viii., pp. 150, 226.).--Is not _tsar_ rather cognate with
the Heb. (¤Sar¤), a leader, commander, or prince? This root is
to be found in many other languages, as Arabic, Persian; Latin _serro_.
Gesenius gives the meaning of the word (¤Sarah¤), to place in a
row, to set in order; to be leader, commander, prince. If _tsar_ have
this origin, it will be synonymous with _imperator_, emperor.
