Exegesis
Displacement is framed by the parallel prepositional phrases meʿal haʾāreṣ hazzōt {מֵעַל הָאָרֶץ הַזֹּאת | mē-ʿal hā-ʾā-reṣ haz-zōṯ} ‘from this land’ and al-haʾāreṣ ʾăšer {עַל־הָאָרֶץ אֲשֶׁר | ʿal-hā-ʾā-reṣ ʾă-šer} ‘to the land that’, which introduces the relative clause lō yedaʿtem {לֹא יְדַעְתֶּם | lō yə-daʿ-tem} ‘you have not known’ with wa-ʾavōteikhem {וַאֲבֽוֹתֵיכֶם | wa-ʼă-ḇō-ṯê-ḵem} ‘nor your fathers’.
