Exegesis

The construct ad-bo {עַד־בֹּא | ʿad-bōʾ} with the relative clause asher-lo {אֲשֶׁר־לּוֹ | ʾăšer-lō} (‘until the coming of the one to whom it belongs’) sets the timeline for the rightful claimant’s arrival, and the final ûnəṯattîw lo {וּנְתַתִּיו לֽוֹ | ûnəṯattîw lō} affirms the subsequent bestowal. The structure moves from destruction to promised restoration.
