    In Daniel 3:2, the determined masculine plural form occurs in the king's list of officials summoned to the image's dedication; the APB renders the list with “the judges.” In Daniel 3:3, the same plural form recurs in the corresponding list of officials who assembled and stood before the image.

In the Anselm Project Bible: Across Daniel 3:2 and Daniel 3:3, the APB includes “the judges” in parallel lists of officials. This presents the verse-level rendering rather than an exact lexical equation.
