Exegesis
This is followed by a personal limitation in the prepositional phrase mimekha ha-de-rekh {מִמְּךָ֜ הַדֶּ֗רֶךְ | mi-me-kha ha-de-rekh} ‘for you the way’.
A second causal ki-yir-ḥaq {כִּֽי־יִרְחַק | kî-yir-ḥaq} ‘because it is distant’ links the task’s impracticality to the distance expressed by mimekha ha-ma-qom {מִמְּךָ֙ הַמָּקוֹם | mi-me-kha ha-mā-qôm} ‘from you the place’.
In context — Deuteronomy 14:24
But if the way is too much for you because you cannot carry it, because the place the LORD your God chooses to put his name is distant from you, since the LORD your God blesses you .
