she.lach describes dispatching people, agents, letters, words, or a royal response in the Aramaic passages.

The attested use centers on dispatching something or someone: rulers send for officials or issue words, correspondents send letters and reports, and a divine agent or a hand is sent. The passive forms show the item or agent as having been sent, while the supplied verse context for Ezra 6:12 does not isolate the term’s contribution clearly.

In the Anselm Project Bible: The APB commonly presents the action with “sent,” including letters, a word, an angel, and a hand that “was sent” in Daniel 5:24. Because the translation gives whole verses rather than word-level alignment, its varied wording cannot by itself identify the term’s precise contribution in every occurrence.
