In context
33So when this matter was known, it was told the king of Persia, that in the place, where the priests that were led away had hidden the fire, there appeared water, and that Nehemiah had purified the sacrifices therewith.
34Then the king, enclosing the place, made it holy, after he had tried the matter.
— 2 Maccabees 1:35 —
36And Nehemiah called this thing Nephthar, which is as much as to say, a cleansing: but many men call it Nephtha.
