Exegesis
The locative phrase bimkom {בִּמְקוֹם | bim-qôm} ‘in place’ combines with asher {אֲשֶׁר | ʾă-šer} ‘where’ to specify “in the place where.”
The Hiphil perfect verb higlu {הִגְלוּ | hig-lû} ‘they carried into exile’ takes oto {אֹתוֹ | o-ṯô} ‘him’ as its object, indicating forced removal.
Root and etymology
g-l-hglh

In context — Jeremiah 22:12
For in the place where they led him into exile , there he will die, and this land he will not see again.
