    The form is tagged as a preposition throughout the cited examples. In Daniel 2:16 the APB renders Daniel's request “from the king”; in Daniel 3:26 it renders the men coming “out from the midst of the fire”; in Daniel 4:3 it renders dominion enduring “from generation to generation”; and in Daniel 2:33 it describes parts “of iron” and “of clay.”

In the Anselm Project Bible: The APB variously expresses the relation with “from,” “out from,” “of,” “to,” and “before,” while some occurrences are absorbed by its translation. These renderings show clause-level presentation rather than a fixed equivalent.
