    In Acts 12:21, τακτῇ is an adjective in the dative singular feminine form within the clause concerning the day; the APB renders the verse, "On an appointed day Herod put on royal clothing, seated himself upon the judgment seat, and was giving a speech to them."

In the Anselm Project Bible: In Acts 12:21, the APB presents the setting as "On an appointed day." This rendering confirms the verse's setting rather than isolating the term beyond the clause.
