# the commander of the army
This refers to God himself, who is the leader of the angel army. (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-explicit]])
# It took away from him the regular burnt offering
Here "took away" means the horn stopped the offering. Here "him" refers to God, the commander of the army. Alternate translation: "It stopped the people from making their regular burnt offering to him"
# the place of his sanctuary was polluted
This can be stated in active form. Alternate translation: "it defiled his sanctuary" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-activepassive]])
