dar refers to a generation or generational span, though its specific contribution is not isolated by the translation in Daniel 4:31.

The attested forms point to a generation or generational span in Daniel 4:31, but the supplied translation does not isolate the term within the king’s announced loss of the kingdom.

    In Daniel 4:31, both attested forms are common masculine singular absolute nouns within the verse containing the heavenly announcement to Nebuchadnezzar. The APB renders the verse as an announcement that “the kingdom has passed from you,” but does not show which English wording corresponds to the noun forms.

In the Anselm Project Bible: In Daniel 4:31, the APB presents the wider announcement that “the kingdom has passed from you,” but does not visibly isolate an English rendering for the noun forms. Its specific rendering is therefore unclear.
