Easton's Bible Dictionary
Melzar

Probably a Persian word meaning master of wine, i.e., chief butler; the title of an officer at the Babylonian court (Daniel 1:11, 16) who had charge of the diet of the Hebrew youths.


Hitchcock's Names Dictionary
Melzar

circumcision of a narrow place, or of a bond


Naves Topical Index
Melzar

The steward whom the prince of the eunuchs set over Daniel and the three Hebrew children.
Daniel 1:11-16


Smith's Bible Dictionary
Melzar

(steward). The Authorized Version is wrong in regarding melzar as a proper name; it is rather an official title, (Daniel 1:11,16) the marginal reading, "the steward," is therefore more correct.
