Exegesis
The repeated partitive constructions minhon/minnehin/uminhon/uminnehin {מנהון/מִנְּהֵ֥ין/ומנהון/וּמִנְּהֵ֣ין} employ the preposition min plus pronominal suffix to distribute elements—iron and clay—across the toes.
The parallel uminna teheveh tevirah {וּמִנַּ֖הּ תֶּהֱוֵ֥ה תְבִירָֽה} mirrors the first clause, shifting to vulnerability. The Aramaic structure uses chaining and parallelism to emphasize internal division and instability, which is rendered in English with corresponding distributive phrasing.
In context — Daniel 2:42
And as the toes of the feet were partly iron and partly clay, so this kingdom will be partly strong, and partly broken .
