feast, banquet; celebratory drinking event
This Aramaic term appears in Daniel's account of Belshazzar's great banquet, the feast where the mysterious hand wrote on the wall. The word emphasizes the drinking aspect—this is specifically a drinking feast or banquet, characterized by wine consumption. It's the setting for one of Scripture's most dramatic moments of divine judgment, when revelry is suddenly interrupted by supernatural warning. The term is the Aramaic equivalent of the Hebrew word for feast or drinking party.
Sentidos
1. sense 1 — A feast or banquet, specifically emphasizing drinking, used in Daniel 5:10 to describe the setting where Belshazzar and his nobles were celebrating. The phrase 'house of the feast' or 'banquet hall' indicates the location where the drinking party was held. This is the infamous celebration where Belshazzar desecrated the temple vessels by using them for wine, prompting the divine handwriting on the wall. Spanish 'banquete' and French 'festin' capture the sense of formal, lavish celebration. The Aramaic term (mishteya) parallels the Hebrew mishteh, both emphasizing the drinking component of festive gatherings in royal courts. 1×
