In Mandaeism, Anush (myz|ࡀࡍࡅࡔ|translit=Anuš) (also spelled Ennosh) or Anush Uthra (myz|ࡀࡍࡅࡔ ࡏࡅࡕࡓࡀ|translit=Anuš ʿUtra) is an uthra (angel or guardian) from the World of Light. Anush is considered to be the Mandaean equivalent of Enos.[1]
Prayers in the Qulasta frequently contain the recurring formula "In the name of Hibil, Šitil, and Anuš" (myz|ࡁࡔࡅࡌࡀࡉࡄࡅࡍ ࡖࡄࡉࡁࡉࡋ ࡅࡔࡉࡕࡉࡋ ࡅࡀࡍࡅࡔ).[2]
The Mshunia Kushta is considered to be the shkina (dwelling) of Anush Uthra.[3]
According to the Mandaean scriptures, including the Qolastā, the Book of John and Genzā Rabbā, Enosh is cognate with the angelic soteriological figure Anush Uthra,[4] (myz|ࡀࡍࡅࡔ ࡏࡅࡕࡓࡀ|translit=Anuš ʿUtra, sometimes translated as "Excellent Ennosh"), who is spoken of as the son[5] or brother[6] of Shitil (Seth). Anush is a lightworld being (uthra) who taught John the Baptist and performed many of the same miracles within Jerusalem typically ascribed to Jesus by Christians.[7]
