Hebrew Parsing — Raw Output

Daniel 8:10

Hebrew          Lemma        Parsing                   Gloss
וַתִּגְדַּל      גדל          Verb.Qal.Wayq.3fs         be strong [wax great]
עַד             עד           Prep                      unto
צְבָא           צבא          Noun.ms.Cst               service [host]
הַשָּׁמָיִם      שׁמים        Noun.mp.Abs               heavens
וַתַּפֵּל        נפל          Verb.Hiphil.Wayq.3fs      fall [cast down]
אַרְצָה         ארץ          Noun.s.Abs                earth [to the ground]
מִן־הַצָּבָא     צבא          Noun.ms.Abs               service [of the host]
וּמִן־הַכֹּוכָבִים כוכב       Noun.mp.Abs               star [and of the stars]
וַתִּרְמְסֵם     רמס          Verb.Qal.Wayq.3fs.+3mp    trample [stamped upon them]

Voice pattern: ALL ACTIVE (Qal/Hiphil). Horn is the named agent. Zone A of the chiasm.

Daniel 8:11

Hebrew          Lemma        Parsing                   Gloss
וְעַד           עד           Prep                      unto
שַׂר            שׂר          Noun.ms.Cst               chief [Prince]
הַצָּבָא         צבא          Noun.ms.Abs               service [of the host]
הִגְדִּיל        גדל          Verb.Hiphil.Perf.3ms      be strong [magnified himself]
וּמִמֶּנּוּ      מן           Prep.+3ms                 from him
הוּרַם          רום          Verb.Hophal.Perf.3ms      be high [was taken away]
הַתָּמִיד        תמיד         Noun.ms.Abs               continuity [the daily]
וְהֻשְׁלַךְ      שׁלך         Verb.Hophal.Perf.3ms      throw [was cast down]
מְכוֹן          מכון         Noun.ms.Cst               site [the place of]
מִקְדָּשׁוֹ      מקדשׁ        Noun.ms.Abs.+3ms          sanctuary [his sanctuary]

Voice pattern: Hiphil ACTIVE (higdil — he magnified) → Hophal PASSIVE (huram — was taken away) → Hophal PASSIVE (hushlak — was cast down). Zone B: Agent suppressed for everything touching the sanctuary.

Key observation: huram (Hophal of rum) — the tamid "was taken away." hushlak (Hophal of shalak) — the sanctuary foundation "was cast down." Both passive with NO agent named. The grammar prevents the horn from directly touching the heavenly sanctuary.

Daniel 8:12

Hebrew          Lemma        Parsing                   Gloss
וְצָבָא         צבא          Noun.ms.Abs               service [and a host]
תִּנָּתֵן       נתן          Verb.Niphal.Impf.3fs      give [was given]
עַל             על           Prep                      upon [against]
הַתָּמִיד       תמיד         Noun.ms.Abs               continuity [the daily]
בְּפָשַׁע       פשׁע         Noun.ms.Abs               rebellion [by reason of transgression]
וְתַשְׁלֵךְ     שׁלך         Verb.Hiphil.Impf.3fs      throw [cast down]
אֱמֶת           אמת          Noun.fs.Abs               trustworthiness [truth]
אַרְצָה         ארץ          Noun.s.Abs                earth [to the ground]
וְעָשְׂתָה      עשׂה         Verb.Qal.Perf.3fs         make [and it practiced]
וְהִצְלִיחָה    צלח          Verb.Hiphil.Perf.3fs      be strong [and prospered]

Voice pattern: Niphal PASSIVE (tinnaten — was given, divine passive) → Hiphil ACTIVE (tashlekh — she cast down) → Qal/Hiphil ACTIVE (asah, hitslichah — acted, prospered). Zone B→C transition.

Key observations: 1. tinnaten = Niphal.Impf.3fs of nathan — divine passive. God is the hidden agent who permits. 2. ba-pesha = "by reason of transgression" — the CAUSE of the permission 3. tashlekh emeth artsah — Hiphil active, horn is the agent casting truth down. Same root shalak as the Hophal in v.11, but now ACTIVE voice. 4. 3fs forms throughout — agrees with qeren (horn, feminine)

Daniel 11:31

Hebrew          Lemma        Parsing                   Gloss
וּזְרֹעִים      זרוע         Noun.mp.Abs               arm [arms/forces]
מִמֶּנּוּ       מן           Prep.+3ms                 from him
יַעֲמֹדוּ       עמד          Verb.Qal.Impf.3mp         stand [shall stand]
וְחִלְּלוּ      חלל          Verb.Piel.Perf.3p         defile [shall pollute]
הַמִּקְדָּשׁ    מקדשׁ        Noun.ms.Abs               sanctuary
הַמָּעוֹז       מעוז         Noun.ms.Abs               fort [of strength]
וְהֵסִירוּ      סור          Verb.Hiphil.Perf.3p       turn aside [take away]
הַתָּמִיד       תמיד         Noun.ms.Abs               continuity [the daily]
וְנָתְנוּ       נתן          Verb.Qal.Perf.3p          give [they shall place]
הַשִּׁקּוּץ     שׁקוץ        Noun.ms.Abs               idol [the abomination]
מְשֹׁומֵם       שׁמם         Verb.Piel.Ptcp.ms.Abs     be desolate [that maketh desolate]

CRITICAL: The substitution formula in 11:31 is explicit: 1. hesirou (Hiphil.Perf.3p of sur) — "they shall TAKE AWAY" — active plural, removal 2. wenathenu (Qal.Perf.3p of nathan) — "AND they shall PLACE/GIVE" — active plural, installation 3. Two verbs in sequence: removal (sur) FOLLOWED BY installation (nathan) of the shiqquts meshomem

This is what Dan 8:12 encodes less directly. Dan 11:31 supplies the explicit substitution grammar.

Daniel 12:11

Hebrew          Lemma        Parsing                   Gloss
וּמֵעֵת         עת           Noun.s.Cst                time [from the time]
הוּסַר          סור          Verb.Hophal.Perf.3ms      turn aside [shall be taken away]
הַתָּמִיד       תמיד         Noun.ms.Abs               continuity [the daily]
וְלָתֵת         נתן          Verb.Qal.InfCon.Cst       give [and to set up / for the purpose of placing]
שִׁקּוּץ        שׁקוץ        Noun.ms.Abs               idol [the abomination]
שֹׁמֵם          שׁמם         Verb.Qal.Ptcp.ms.Abs      be desolate [that maketh desolate]

CRITICAL: The 12:11 formula adds purpose: 1. husar (Hophal.Perf.3ms of sur) — "shall be TAKEN AWAY" — PASSIVE (agent suppressed, cf. Hiphil in 11:31) 2. welatheth (le + Qal.InfCon of nathan) — "AND FOR THE PURPOSE OF PLACING" — infinitive of PURPOSE 3. Voice shift from 11:31: Active Hiphil hesirou → Passive Hophal husar. The same action, but now the grammar suppresses the agent. 4. The infinitive construct latheth links removal and installation as cause-and-purpose: the tamid is removed FOR THE PURPOSE OF installing the shiqquts shomem.
