A memorandum, record, or written document preserved for official reference
This Aramaic term appears in Ezra's account of the temple rebuilding, denoting an official written record. Cognate with the Hebrew word for 'remembrance,' it specifically refers to archived documents in the Persian administrative system. When King Darius orders a search of the royal archives, this word describes what they find: a formal memorandum authorizing the temple's reconstruction. The term reflects the bureaucratic precision of the Persian Empire, where decrees were carefully recorded and stored. French and German leave it untranslated, suggesting its technical, archival nature.

1. sense 1 — Ezra 6:2 records the discovery of 'a record' in the fortress at Ecbatana containing Cyrus's original decree about rebuilding Jerusalem's temple. This Aramaic loanword reflects Persian administrative vocabulary, showing how the biblical authors adopted the empire's official terminology. The discovery of this memorandum proves legally decisive, enabling Darius to confirm and enforce his predecessor's authorization—a vivid example of how ancient record-keeping served justice and continuity across generations. 1×
