man is an Aramaic pronoun used to ask for, refer to, or identify a person in questions and clauses.

As a grammatical pronoun, man marks a person sought in questions, an unspecified person in statements, or a person identified by a relative clause: the APB asks who issued a decree in Ezra 5:3, refers to whoever does not worship in Daniel 3:6, and describes the king in Daniel 4:22.

   The form functions in person-focused questions in Ezra 5:3 and Ezra 5:4, where the APB renders questions beginning “Who.” It also occurs in clauses referring to an unspecified or identified person: in Daniel 3:6 the APB renders “whoever does not fall down and worship,” while Daniel 4:22 identifies the king described as having grown strong.

In the Anselm Project Bible: The APB presents the pronoun through “Who” in the Ezra questions and through “whoever” in the Daniel decree clauses; it also reflects person-reference within relative clauses. Its English wording does not isolate the form in every occurrence.
