Gesenius' Hebrew and Chaldee Definition

פֶּחָה (for פַּחָה with Dag. forte implied), m. const. פַּחַת, with suff. פֶּחָֽתְךָ, once פֶּחָם Nehemiah 5:14 (from the masculine form פַּח), pl. פַּחוֹת 1 Kings 10:15, 20:24 Jeremiah 51:23; Ezekiel 23:6, 23 Ezekiel 23:23 const. state פַּחֲווֹת (from absol. פֶּחָוֹות) Nehemiah 2:7, Ezra 8:36, m. the governor of a province (less than that of a satrap, see אֲחַשְׁדַּרְפָּן) in the Assyrian empire, 2 Kings 18:24; Isaiah 36:9 Chaldean, Ezekiel 23:6, 23 Ezekiel 23:23; Jeremiah 51:23 Persian, Esther 8:9, 9:3 specially used of the Persian governor of Judæa, Haggai 1:1, 14 Haggai 1:14, 2:2, 21 Haggai 2:21; Nehemiah 5:14, 18 12:26 Malachi 1:8 used of the governor of Judea in the time of Solomon, 1 Kings 10:15 and of the governors of Syria, 1 Kings 20:24. (This word appears to be of foreign origin, and Bohlen compares Pers. بكيت, بكيتا great men, nobles; Ewald in Gramm. p. 490, the verb جختن pukhten, to care for, to act (pr. to cook, bake; Germ. backen.) Better than all these would be بك, بيك, بكاa prince, leader, commander of Soldiers, were not this apparently a mere Turkish word; but the Persian is بيك paik, one of the guard, an attendant.) [Benfey compares Sanscr. paksha, companion, friend; and this Gesenius appears to have preferred.]

פֶּחָה constr. פַּחַת, pl. emphat. פַּחֲוָתָא, Chald. id. Ezra 5:3, 14 Ezra 5:14, 6:7 Daniel 3:2,, 27 6:8.
