Exegesis

A series of construct-state nouns—qerasav {קְרָסָ֣יו | qerāsāyw} ‘its hooks’, qerashav {קְרָשָׁ֔יו | qerāšāyw} ‘its boards’, berichav {בְּרִיחָ֖יו | berîḥāyw} ‘its bars’, we’ammudav {וְעַמֻּדָ֥יו | weʿammudāyw} ‘its pillars’, wa’addanav {וַאֲדָנָֽיו | waʾaddānāyw} ‘its bases’—is linked by we {וְ | wə}, creating a climactic listing. English parallel noun phrases preserve both individual items and cumulative enumeration.
