[עָדַן] verb denominative Hithpa`el luxuriate (Late Hebrew Pi`el delight (active), so Syriac

; — Imperfect 3 masculine plural וַיִּתְעַדְּנוּ בְּטוּבְךָ Nehemiah 9:25 and they luxuriated in thy great goodness (+ וַיּאֹכְלוּ וַיִּשְׂבְּעוּ וַיַּשְׁמִינוּ).

Gesenius' Hebrew and Chaldee Definition

עָדַן a root not used in Kal, which appears to have had the signification of softness, laxity; Arab. غدن V. to be flexible, to vacillate, غَدَنُ softness, laxity, languor, غِدَانُ a cane, or reed, a tall rod (pr. vacillating, vibrating in the air); comp. above עָדִין. Gr. ἀδινός, which Jo. Simonis compares, is plainly not connected with this stock.

Hithpael, pr. to conduct oneself softly, i.e. to live sumptuously, delicately, Nehemiah 9:25.
