इस शब्द की हिंदी परिभाषा अभी उपलब्ध नहीं है, इसलिए अंग्रेज़ी पाठ दिखाया गया है।
A word probably of Persian origin, meaning “severity,” denoting a high civil dignity. The Persian governor of Judea is so called (Ezra 2:63; Neh. 7:65, 70). Nehemiah is called by this name in Neh. 8:9; 10:1, and the “governor” (pehah) in 5:18. Probably, therefore, tirshatha=pehah=the modern pasha.
