to seal, make secure by sealing; to close and authenticate with a seal
This Aramaic verb means 'to seal,' appearing in Daniel 6:17 where King Darius 'sealed' the stone over the lions' den with his signet. Sealing ensured the stone could not be moved without detection, guaranteeing Daniel would face his trial uninterrupted. The act combines security with authentication—only the king could legally open what he had sealed. The verb underscores royal authority and the inescapability of Daniel's situation.

1. sense 1 — Daniel 6:17 recounts how Darius, after placing Daniel in the lions' den, 'sealed it with his own signet and with the signet of his lords, that nothing might be changed concerning Daniel.' The sealing prevented tampering and ensured the test's integrity. The Aramaic perfect form with suffix ('sealed it') emphasizes the completed action. Spanish 'y-la-selló,' French 'cacheter,' and English 'sealed-it' all convey finality and official authentication. 1×
