    • 1864, Eduard Vilmar, “Die symbolische Bedeutung des Naziräergelübdes”, in Theologische Studien und Kritiken, volume 37, number 3, Gotha: Friedrich Andreas Perthes, pages 468–469 from 438–484:
      Die Bildung ⁧חרצן⁩ hat den Begriff des Sauren und bedeutet hiernach die saure, unreife Traube, den Gärling (⁧حصرم⁩).
      The formation ⁧חרצן⁩ therefore has the concept of sour and means thereafter the sour, unripe grape (⁧حصرم⁩).
