Exegesis

The imperfect yə-taʿamunne(h) {יְטַ֣עֲמוּנֵּ֔הּ | yə-ṭa-ʿə-mūn-neh} ‘they fed him’ indicates ongoing provision, and the Ithpaal imperfect yiṣ-tab-baʿ {יִצְטַבַּ֑ע | yiṣ-ṭab-baʿ} ‘was drenched’ shows involuntary exposure.

In contextDaniel 5:21

And he was driven away from the sons of men, and his mind was made like that of the beasts , and with the wild donkeys was his dwelling. They would feed him grass like oxen, and his body was drenched with the dew of heaven, until he knew that the Most High God rules the kingdom of men and appoints over it whomever He wills.
