Exegesis
The locative expression bammāqōm hazzeh {בַמָּקוֹם הַזֶּה | ba-māqōm hazzeh} ‘in this place’ situates the prohibition. Hebrew’s asyndetic stacking of negatives heightens the severity, rendered in English by parallel prohibitive clauses.
In context — Jeremiah 16:2
You shall not take for yourself a wife , and you shall not have sons or daughters in this place .
