Brown-Driver-Briggs Expanded Definition
 [אֲגַרְטָל] noun masculine a kind of vessel, basin or basket (?; others basket-like, basket-shaped vessel); only plural construct אֲגַרְטְלֵי זָהָב, & כֶסֶף׳א, both Ezra 1:9, denoting vessels from temple at Jerusalem restored by Cyrus. (Etymology & meaning dubious compare above; A ᵐ5 L Manuscripts ᵐ5 of ψυκτῆρες, wine-coolers; B omits; now commonly compared with Aramaic קַרְטָלִיתָא Levy NHWB iv. 376, , Arabic , , supposed to be loan-word from Hellenistic Greek κάρταλος, κάρταλλος (e.g. ᵐ5 2 Kings 10:7, Hebrew דּוּדִים), all = basket, fruit-basket, etc., canistrum (so MV BeRy SS); but κάρταλλος itself is possibly a Persian or Semitic loan-word; compare especially Frä77f.; further conjectures in Thes BeRy.)

גרל (compare Arabic , & plural , stones, or stony place planted with trees; stony; , , stony ground, stones; hence following, because stones were used in casting lots; compare Greek ψῆφος pebble, vote; κύσμος bean, lot).

Gesenius' Hebrew and Chaldee Definition

אֲגַרְטָל m., Ezra 1:9 כֶּסֶף, אֲגַרְטְלֵי זָהָב LXX., Vulg., Syr. paterœ aureœ, paterœ argenteœ, basins, chargers of gold, of silver. In the Talmud of Jerusalem, this word is said to be compounded of אָגַר to collect, and טָלֶה a lamb, so that the bowls would be so called, because the blood of lambs was collected in them. But in this word there is no mention of blood. This word appears to me to be a quadri-literal with א prosthet., and to signify a slaughter-basin; for גַּרְטָל, גַּטָּל (see under the letter ר). This I suppose to be for קַטָּל, קַטֵּל (compare Nasor. גטל for קטל), from ܩܰܛܶܠ to slay, قَطَلَ to cut the throat. Some also have taken it for the Gr. κάρταλος, κάρταλλος, which is used in the Septuagint for a basket, fruit-basket, whence comes the Arab. قِرْطَلَةُ, Rabb. קַרְטִיל, Syr. ܩܰܪܛܠܘܽܬܙܳ, and it might perhaps be taken in Ezra for baskets of first-fruits; but this Greek word seems rather itself to be of Phœnicio-Shemitic origin, and to be from the root גָּדַל to plait.
