This Aramaic term appears in Daniel's list of officials summoned to Nebuchadnezzar's image dedication. The word is textually difficult—many scholars see it as a variant or scribal error related to 'treasurer,' while others propose it might be a duplicate term in the list. Ancient versions interpreted it as referring to financial officials, those responsible for managing the king's treasures and revenues. The uncertainty reflects the challenges of understanding technical administrative vocabulary from ancient Babylonian bureaucracy preserved in Aramaic.
