Exegesis

The final clause di pishra le-malka yehodaʿ {דִּ֥י פִשְׁרָ֖א לְמַלְכָּ֥א יְהוֹדַֽע | dî pish-rā lə-mal-kāʾ ye-ho-daʿ} ‘who will make known the interpretation to the king’ uses pishra ‘interpretation’ and the Haphel imperfect yehodaʿ ‘he will make known’ to define Daniel’s role. The sequence of relative clauses builds emphasis on Daniel’s qualification and mission.
