Exegesis
A second predicate follows with yehav-leh {יְהַב־לֵ֔הּ | yəhav-lēh} ‘he gave to him’, whose object is expanded by umatnan {וּמַתְּנָ֨ן | û-mattənān} ‘and gifts’ and intensified through the stacked adjectives rabrevan {רַבְרְבָ֤ן | rabrəvān} ‘great’ and saggian {שַׂגִּיאָן֙ | śaggiʾān} ‘many’, emphasizing both value and quantity.
In context — Daniel 2:48
Then the king made Daniel great and gave him many great gifts, and he made him ruler over the entire province of Babylon, and chief prefect over all the wise men of Babylon.
