| Morphological Notes | Preposition בְ ("in/at") + proper masculine singular name דָּן. |
| Rendering Rationale | The form consists of the prefixed preposition בְ ("in/at") attached to the proper name דָּן, derived from the root דין meaning "to judge." Rendering the name as "Judge" preserves the root sense while reflecting the prefixed preposition in this specific form. |
