Exegesis
Finally, the construct malʾākh YHWH {מַלְאַךְ יְהוָה | malʾāḵ YHWH} ‘angel of the LORD’ paired with ʿimgōren {עִם-גֹּרֶן | ʿimgōren} ‘with the threshing floor’ of ʾŏrnān hayĕvūsî {אָרְנָן הַיְבוּסִי | ʾŏrnān hayĕvūsî} frames the location. The progression from purpose clauses to narrative interruption, spoken command, and locative participle underscores the theology of divine judgment and mercy.
In context — 1 Chronicles 21:15
And God sent an angel to Jerusalem to destroy it. But as he was destroying, the LORD saw and relented concerning the calamity , and He said to the destroyer, “Enough ! Now hold back your hand.” Then the angel of the LORD stood at the threshing floor of Ornan the Jebusite.
