Exegesis
The prepositional phrase bəḥayyīn {בְחַיִּין | bə-ḥayyîn} ‘in lives’ marks the domain of the extension, and the haphel perfect yəhîḇat {יְהִיבַת | yəhîḇat} ‘was given’ takes lə-hōn {לְהוֹן | lə-hōn} ‘to them’ as its indirect object.
In context — Daniel 7:12
But as for the rest of the beasts, their dominion was taken away, yet a length in their lives was given to them until a time and a period.
