Webster's Dictionary [1]

(v. t. & i.) See Distill.

International Standard Bible Encyclopedia [2]

dis - til ´: Only found twice in the English Bible ( Deuteronomy 32:2;  Job 36:27 ), in both cases in its original meaning of "to fall in drops," as dew or rain (derived through French from Latin de , "down," stillo , "to drop"). It does not occur in its later technical sense, for the process we call distilllation was not known in ancient times.
