Exegesis

The vocative gavriʾēl {גַּבְרִיאֵ֕ל | gav-ri-’ēl} ‘Gabriel’ is followed by the Hiphil imperative hāvēn {הָבֵן | hā-vēn} ‘make understand’ with the infinitive ləhallāz {לְהַלָּ֖ז | lə-hal-lāz} ‘to this one’ serving as its complement.

In contextDaniel 8:16

And I heard the voice of a man between the banks of Ulai, and he called and said, “Gabriel , make this one understand the vision .”
