In Daniel 7:8, the Pilel perfect masculine plural form occurs in the clause about three of the first horns before the small horn. The APB renders the clause, “three of the first horns were uprooted from before it.”
In the Anselm Project Bible: In Daniel 7:8, the APB presents the action as “were uprooted from before it.” This rendering confirms the clause’s overall portrayal of removal rather than isolating each form separately.
