Exegesis
The focus of the vision appears in the noun phrase ʾîlān bəgô ʾarʿā {אִילָן בְּגוֹא אַרְעָא | ʾî-lān bə-ḡôʾ ʾar-ʿāʾ}, “a tree in the midst of the earth.” The preposition plus noun bəgô “in the midst” places the tree at the symbolic center of the earth, suggesting universality and prominence.
In context — Daniel 4:10
These were the visions of my head as I lay upon my bed: I was watching, and behold, a tree in the midst of the earth , and its height was great.
