Exegesis
bara {בָּרֵא … בָּרֵא | bā-rēʾ … bā-rēʾ} to stress deliberate selection: first the marker is chosen, then its placement is chosen.
In context — Ezekiel 21:19
And you, Son of Man, set for yourself two ways for the sword of the king of Babylon to come; from one land both of them shall go out. And choose a signpost ; choose it at the head of the way to a city.
