Tzeba'aize 

The term tzeba'aize is an Aramaicism coined by Judaic studies researcher Michael Turnage a.k.a Messiah's Servant, it means to ritually immerse, dip or submerge in water, but exclusively used in the context of Second Temple Judaism, derived via the Judeo-Aramaic צְבַע (ṣəḇaʿ) which refers to the action of dipping, generally in water, though it can also mean to dye something. The verb צְבַע is also where we get the term Sabian used to refer to Mandeans. Its cognate with biblical Hebrew טַבל (ṭăḇal) from which we get the term טְבִילָה "Tevilah," likewise used to refer to ritual immersion.

The Essenes would tzeba'aize newcomers to the sectarian community as a rite of initiation.
