Exegesis
The noun phrase ʾĕlaha illaʿa {אֱלָהָ֤א עִלָּאָה֙ | ʾĕ-lā-hāʾ ʿil-lā-ʾā} ‘Most High God’ governs the clause bə-mal-kût anasha {בְּמַלְכ֣וּת אֲנָשָׁ֔א | bə-mal-kût ʾă-nā-šāʾ} ‘in the kingdom of men’, and the Haphil imperfect yə-ha-ḳêm {יְהָקֵ֥ים | yə-hā-qêm} ‘he appoints’ plus the relative pronoun marks divine prerogative.
In context — Daniel 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.
