'''Exilarch''', title given to the head of the Babylonian Jews (see [http://www.jewishencyclopedia.com/view.jsp?artid=548&letter=E&search=exilarch here]). "A chronicle of about the year 800—the Seder 'Olam Zuṭa—fills up the gaps in the early history of the exilarch by constructing an account according to which the first exilarch was no less a person than Jehoiachin, the last king but one of the house of David, whom the exilarchs regarded as their ancestor."
