Cardinal quantity in an administrative setting · dominant
In Daniel 6:2, the absolute plural cardinal form occurs in the clause concerning satraps who might give account to three officials. The APB renders the surrounding administrative arrangement as “these satraps might give account to them,” but does not plainly isolate this term's English contribution.
In the Anselm Project Bible: In Daniel 6:2, the APB presents the surrounding arrangement of officials and satraps but does not clearly mark a separate English rendering for this form.
