am denotes a people or human community, whether a particular group or peoples addressed across kingdoms.

The occurrences denote a human community, either a particular people treated as a collective or peoples named alongside nations and languages. The term occurs in decrees, judgments, deportation, offerings, and the grant of an enduring kingdom.

1. A human community or people · dominant

   The term identifies groups subject to royal action or belonging to a defined community: in Daniel 2:44 the APB renders a kingdom not being left to “another people,” while in Ezra 5:12 it renders those carried away to Babylon as “the people.” In Daniel 7:27 the construct form occurs in the clause rendered “the people of the holy ones,” and Ezra 7:25 speaks of judging “all the people” beyond the river. Plural occurrences extend the same group reference across peoples named with nations and languages, as rendered in Daniel 3:4 and Daniel 7:14.

In the Anselm Project Bible: The APB commonly presents the term as “people” for a collective group and “peoples” where groups are listed with nations and languages; Daniel 6:26 instead has “men.” These renderings indicate the verse-level presentation rather than a fixed English equivalent.
