Senses in use

  1. Having lodged · dominant

    In Daniel 6:19, the form is Qal Perfect, 3rd masculine singular, presenting a completed act of lodging. The APB renders the surrounding verse, "Then at dawn the king arose with the light and went in haste to the den of lions," without isolating this term's contribution.

In the Anselm Project Bible: In Daniel 6:19, the APB presents the king rising at dawn and hastening to the lions' den, but its translation does not separately identify the term's lodging sense.
