Exegesis
The verse is in Biblical Aramaic and opens with the narrative formula ʿaneh {עָנֵה | ʿānê} “answered,” followed by the subject malkā {מַלְכָּא | malkāʾ} “the king,” and then wəʾāmar {וְאָמַר | wə-ʾāmar} “and said.” This verb–subject–verb sequence foregrounds the speaker and builds suspense before the content of his speech.
In context — Daniel 4:30
The king answered and said, “Is this not the great Babylon that I have built as a house for the kingdom , by the might of my power, and for the honor of my majesty?”
