Exegesis
The appositional clause hu hiddaqel {ה֥וּא חִדָּֽקֶל | hū ḥid-dā-qel} ‘which is Hiddekel’ clarifies the river’s identity. The Hebrew sequence places the temporal date before the spatial detail, a pattern preserved through subordinate temporal phrasing in English.
Root and etymology
“Tigris River”
In context — Daniel 10:4
And on the twenty-fourth day of the first month, I was on the bank of the great river, which is the Hiddekel.
