Amos is a possible answer if they have used the wong clue. I think he was a Hebrew prophet

If the clue is exactly as you have given here I suggest there is an error as the answer must be 'Midas'. Which crossword is it from?
Yes, pevious posters have also given the letters as ?M?S

It cannot be MIDAS as in the same crossword there is another clue
33A Greedy king of Pessinus, Phrygia ( 5) This answer is Midas.

The only explanation is that the 36a clue is wrong.
Any suggestions ?

Can someone identify this crossword which might have been published earlier.
That would be easier then to identify if the given clue is wrong.
Some of the down clues are:
25 d Chinese Philosophical system based on writings by Lao Tzu ( 6)
Ans : TAOISM
31 d The fourth- longest river in Africa ( 7)
Ans: ZAMBEZI

Hence the 36a clue must be wrong.

Can someone who has done it previously help locate the correct clue ?
