Exegesis
The temporal merism ʿad-zəmān wə-ʿiddān {עַד־זְמַן וְעִדָּן | ʿad-zəmān wə-ʿiddān} ‘until a time and period’ establishes the boundary of the extension. In translation, the Aramaic verb-object order is rendered into a natural English subject-verb-object sequence, while preserving the causal and temporal pairings that underscore divine regulation of dominion and life.
Root and etymology
ע־ד־נ
“period, epoch”
In context — Daniel 7:12
