Charger:
a bowl or deep dish. The silver vessels given by the heads of the tribes for the services of the tabernacle are so named (Num 7:13, etc.). The "charger" in which the Baptist's head was presented was a platter or flat wooden trencher (Mat 14:8,11; Mar 6:25,28). The chargers of gold and silver of Ezr 1:9 were probably basins for receiving the blood of sacrifices.
The Blue Letter Bible ministry and the BLB Institute hold to the historical, conservative Christian faith, which includes a firm belief in the inerrancy of Scripture. Since the text and audio content provided by BLB represent a range of evangelical traditions, all of the ideas and principles conveyed in the resource materials are not necessarily affirmed, in total, by this ministry.
