Exegesis
Finally, the prepositional phrases be-ḥayil gādol {בְּחַיִל גָּדוֹל | bə-ḥayil gā-ḏōl} ‘with a great army’ and u-vir-ḵūš rav {וּבִרְכּ֥וּשׁ רָב | û-ḇir-ḵūš rav} ‘and with much wealth’ enumerate the compound resources for the campaign. The English rendition preserves these Hebrew structures through coordinated clauses, comparative focus, and temporal connectors.
