This entry provides a comprehensive understanding of the Aramaic term מָאן, its usage in the biblical text, and its significance within the cultural and religious practices of the time.

Usage: The term מָאן is used in the context of describing a physical object, specifically a utensil or vessel, within the Aramaic portions of the Old Testament.

Context: The Aramaic word מָאן (maan) appears in the context of the Old Testament, particularly in the books of Daniel and Ezra, which contain significant portions written in Aramaic. This term is used to denote a utensil or vessel, often in the context of temple articles or items used in religious or royal settings. In the book of Daniel, for example, מָאן is used to describe the vessels taken from the temple in Jerusalem and used by King Belshazzar during his feast (Daniel 5:2-3). These vessels were originally consecrated for use in the worship of Yahweh, highlighting the sacrilege of their misuse. The use of מָאן in these contexts underscores the importance of these items in religious and cultural practices of the time.
