From Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary [easton]:
   Chaldee language
      employed by the sacred writers in certain portions of the Old
      Testament, viz., Dan. 2:4-7, 28; Ezra 4:8-6:18; 7:12-26; Gen.
      31:46; Jer. 10:11. It is the Aramaic dialect, as it is sometimes
      called, as distinguished from the Hebrew dialect. It was the
      language of commerce and of social intercourse in Western Asia,
      and after the Exile gradually came to be the popular language of
      Palestine. It is called "Syrian" in 2 Kings 18:26. Some isolated
      words in this language are preserved in the New Testament (Matt.
      5:22; 6:24; 16:17; 27:46; Mark 3:17; 5:41; 7:34; 14:36; Acts
      1:19; 1 Cor. 16:22). These are specimens of the vernacular
      language of Palestine at that period. The term "Hebrew" was also
      sometimes applied to the Chaldee because it had become the
      language of the Hebrews (John 5:2; 19:20).
