In the King James Version and the English Revised Version "charger," the American Standard Revised Version "platter" (compare Exodus 25:29; Exodus 37:16); the Septuagint trublion, and in the New Testament rendered "dish" (Matthew 26:23; Mark 14:20). In Ezra 1:9, the American Standard Revised Version agharTal, rendered "platter," the King James Version and the English Revised Version "chargers"; probably a deep dish or basin used in sacrificial slaughter.
