Ezra 4:21 עַד־ until

Now, therefore, issue an order for these men to stop, so that this city will not be rebuilt until I so order.

Ezra 4:24 עַ֚ד until

Thus the construction of the house of God in Jerusalem ceased, and it remained at a standstill until the second year of the reign of Darius king of Persia.

Ezra 5:5 עַד־ until

But the eye of their God was on the elders of the Jews, so that they were not stopped until a report was sent to Darius and written instructions about this matter were returned.

Ezra 5:16 וְעַד־ and until

So this Sheshbazzar came and laid the foundation of the house of God in Jerusalem, and from that time until now it has been under construction, but it has not yet been completed.”

Ezra 6:15 עַ֛ד until

And this temple was completed on the third day of the month of Adar, in the sixth year of the reign of King Darius.

Ezra 7:22 עַד־ וְעַד־ וְעַד־ וְעַד־ up to, and up to

up to a hundred talents of silver, a hundred cors of wheat, a hundred baths of wine, a hundred baths of olive oil, and salt without limit.

Daniel 2:9 עַ֛ד until

If you do not tell me the dream, there is only one decree for you. You have conspired to speak before me false and fraudulent words, hoping the situation will change. Therefore tell me the dream, and I will know that you can give me its interpretation.”

Daniel 2:20 וְעַ֣ד־ and to

and declared: “Blessed be the name of God forever and ever, for wisdom and power belong to Him.

Here: 'And to / as far as': the end point of the span.

Daniel 2:34 עַ֠ד until

As you watched, a stone was cut out, but not by human hands. It struck the statue on its feet of iron and clay, and crushed them.

Here: "Until." It marks the moment the still scene (the gleaming statue of 2:31–33) is broken by something new happening.

Daniel 4:8 וְעַ֣ד and until

But at last, into my presence came Daniel (whose name is Belteshazzar after the name of my god, and in whom is the spirit of the holy gods). And I told him the dream:

Here: Joined with the next word it makes 'and until at last': the king's experts have been tried and have failed (v.7), and only then does Daniel arrive.

Daniel 4:17 עַד־ to

This decision is the decree of the watchers, the verdict declared by the holy ones, so that the living will know that the Most High rules over the kingdom of mankind and gives it to whom He wishes, setting over it the lowliest of men.’

Here: Joined with the next two words it forms a purpose phrase: 'to the end that'.

Daniel 4:23 עַ֛ד until

And you, O king, saw a watcher, a holy one, coming down from heaven and saying: ‘Cut down the tree and destroy it, but leave the stump with its roots in the ground, with a band of iron and bronze around it, in the tender grass of the field. Let him be drenched with the dew of heaven, and graze with the beasts of the field till seven times pass him by.’

Here: 'Until': the sentence has an end point. It is limited, not permanent.

Daniel 4:25 עַ֣ד until

You will be driven away from mankind, and your dwelling will be with the beasts of the field. You will feed on grass like an ox and be drenched with the dew of heaven, and seven times shall pass you by, until you acknowledge that the Most High rules over the kingdom of mankind and gives it to whom He wishes.

Here: Sets the end point. The humiliation has a goal and a limit.

Daniel 4:32 עַ֣ד until

You will be driven away from mankind to live with the beasts of the field, and you will feed on grass like an ox. And seven times will pass you by, until you acknowledge that the Most High rules over the kingdom of mankind and gives it to whom He wishes.”

Here: 'Until.' It sets the end of the sentence. The punishment has a goal and a limit.

Daniel 4:33 עַ֣ד until

At that moment the sentence against Nebuchadnezzar was fulfilled. He was driven away from mankind. He ate grass like an ox, and his body was drenched with the dew of heaven, until his hair grew like the feathers of an eagle and his nails like the claws of a bird.

Daniel 5:21 עַ֣ד until

He was driven away from mankind, and his mind was like that of a beast. He lived with the wild donkeys and ate grass like an ox, and his body was drenched with the dew of heaven until he acknowledged that the Most High God rules over the kingdom of mankind, setting over it whom He wishes.

Here: Sets a limit. The humiliation had a purpose and an end point.

Daniel 6:7 עַד־ until

All the royal administrators, prefects, satraps, advisers, and governors have agreed that the king should establish an ordinance and enforce a decree that for thirty days anyone who petitions any god or man except you, O king, will be thrown into the den of lions.

Here: 'Until thirty days': for a period ending after thirty days.

Daniel 6:12 עַד־ until

So they approached the king and asked about his royal decree: “Did you not sign a decree that for thirty days any man who petitions any god or man except you, O king, will be thrown into the den of lions?” The king replied, “According to the law of the Medes and Persians the order stands, and it cannot be repealed.”

Daniel 6:14 וְעַד֙ and until

As soon as the king heard this, he was deeply distressed and set his mind on delivering Daniel, and he labored until sundown to rescue him.

Daniel 6:24 עַ֠ד until

At the command of the king, the men who had falsely accused Daniel were brought and thrown into the den of lions—they and their children and wives. And before they had reached the bottom of the den, the lions overpowered them and crushed all their bones.

Here: Combined with 'not reached', it means 'they had not reached… before…'. The time is compressed to an instant.

Daniel 6:26 עַד־ [is] to

I hereby decree that in every part of my kingdom, men are to tremble in fear before the God of Daniel: For He is the living God, and He endures forever; His kingdom will never be destroyed, and His dominion will never end.

Here: "As far as, up to."

Daniel 7:4 עַד֩ until

The first beast was like a lion, and it had the wings of an eagle. I watched until its wings were torn off and it was lifted up from the ground and made to stand on two feet like a man and given the mind of a man.

Here: "Until": Daniel keeps looking until a change happens to the beast. The beast's first form does not last.

Daniel 7:9 עַ֣ד until

As I continued to watch, thrones were set in place, and the Ancient of Days took His seat. His clothing was white as snow, and the hair of His head was like pure wool. His throne was flaming with fire, and its wheels were all ablaze.

Here: 'Until'. It marks a turn in the vision: Daniel watched the beasts and the boasting horn (v. 8) until a new scene broke in.

Daniel 7:11 עַד֩ until

Then I kept watching because of the arrogant words the horn was speaking. As I continued to watch, the beast was slain, and its body was destroyed and thrown into the blazing fire.

Daniel 7:12 עַד־ until

As for the rest of the beasts, their dominion was removed, but they were granted an extension of life for a season and a time.

Daniel 7:13 וְעַד־ and to

In my vision in the night I continued to watch, and I saw One like the Son of Man coming with the clouds of heaven. He approached the Ancient of Days and was led into His presence.

Here: 'And up to.' It states where the movement is going: to the enthroned God, not down to the earth.

Daniel 7:18 עַֽד־ וְעַ֖ד until, and until

But the saints of the Most High will receive the kingdom and possess it forever—yes, forever and ever.’

Here: 'Up to, as far as.' It begins the time phrase: the kingdom's hold lasts as far as time reaches.

Daniel 7:22 עַ֣ד until

until the Ancient of Days arrived and pronounced judgment in favor of the saints of the Most High, and the time came for them to possess the kingdom.

Here: Marks a limit. Verse 21 says the horn was winning its war against the holy ones; 'until' says that winning has an end point, and the rest of the verse names it.

Daniel 7:25 עַד־ until

He will speak out against the Most High and oppress the saints of the Most High, intending to change the appointed times and laws; and the saints will be given into his hand for a time, and times, and half a time.

Here: "Until" or "for (the space of)". The word marks a limit. The handover has an end point, which verse 26 then describes.

Daniel 7:26 עַד־ until

But the court will convene, and his dominion will be taken away and completely destroyed forever.

Here: "Until": it marks the limit of the destruction, which goes all the way.

Daniel 7:28 עַד־ to

Thus ends the matter. As for me, Daniel, my thoughts troubled me greatly, and my face turned pale. But I kept the matter to myself.”

Here: Marks a limit: 'up to this point'. With the next word it forms a closing formula, like a stage direction saying the account stops here.
