Exegesis

The feminine plural noun banot {בָּנוֹת | bā-nôṯ} ‘daughters’ is used metaphorically for branches or offshoots, and its grammatical gender controls the feminine singular verb tsaadah {צָעֲדָה | ṣā-ʿă-ḏāh} ‘she stepped / marched’, personifying the branches as actively advancing.

In contextGenesis 49:22

Joseph is a fruitful son, a fruitful son by a spring; his branches climb over a wall.
