his delicacy-portion

Rootפתבג (p-t-b-g)
Core Meaningsroyal portion, delicacy, rich food, provision
Semantic Rangeroyal rations, rich food, delicacies, allotted portion from a king’s table
Conceptual SignificanceIn Daniel, this term denotes the king’s appointed rich food, symbolizing participation in royal culture and dependence on imperial provision—an issue of covenant faithfulness and identity for the exiled Israelites.
Morphological NotesMasculine singular noun in construct form with a 3rd masculine singular pronominal suffix (HNcmsc/Sp3ms). A Persian loanword used in Biblical Aramaic/Hebrew contexts, notably in Daniel.
Rendering RationaleThe noun פַּתְבַּג refers to a rich or royal portion of food. The morphology (masculine singular construct with 3ms suffix) requires a singular construct form with a third masculine singular possessive, hence "his delicacy-portion," preserving both the singular number and the attached "his."
