Gesenius' Hebrew and Chaldee Definition

נֶתֶר m. nitre (Gr. νίτρον, λίτρον), prop. natron of the moderns, fossil alkali, potash (different from בֹּרִית vegetable alkali), which, when mixed with oil, is used even now for soap, Proverbs 25:20; Jeremiah 2:22. It appears to be so called because, when water is poured upon it, it effervesces or ferments. See Beckmann, Beyträge zur Geschichte der Erfindungen, t. iv. p. 15, seq. Also the same writer’s Comment. ad Aristot. de Mirab. Auscultat. c. 54. J. D. Michaëlis, de Nitre, § 10.
