Exegesis
Finally, the prepositional phrase ʿal har-gāḇōah wə-ṯālûl {עַל הַר־גָּבֹהַ וְתָלֽוּל | ʿal har-gāḇōah wə-ṯālûl} ‘on a high and lofty mountain’ closes the verse with a strategic setting. The Hebrew parallelism and construct chains underscore the meticulous nature of divine selection and planting.
In context — Ezekiel 17:22
Thus says the Lord GOD : I Myself will take from the top of the lofty cedar and set it; from the top of its young twigs I will pluck a tender one, and I Myself will plant it on a high and lofty mountain.
