me.mar denotes an authoritative directive, heard in a spoken order and followed in priestly provision.

The two attested uses present an authoritative directive: a spoken order to cut down a tree in Daniel 4:14 and the priests' stated direction for supplying offerings in Ezra 6:9.

1. Authoritative directive or stated order · dominant

   Both occurrences are masculine singular construct nouns. In Daniel 4:14, the form occurs with the cry that orders the tree cut down, its branches severed, and its foliage stripped; the APB renders the ensuing speech, “Cut down the tree and sever its branches.” In Ezra 6:9, it stands in the clause governing provision for offerings according to the priests' word; the APB renders “shall be given according to the word of the priests who are in Jerusalem.”

In the Anselm Project Bible: The APB presents the Daniel clause as direct imperatives and explicitly uses “word” in the Ezra clause. These renderings confirm the verse contexts rather than isolate a fixed English equivalent.
