Exegesis

The coordinated sequence vekara lo chalonnai {וְקָ֤רַע לוֹ חַלּוֹנָ֔י | və-qā-ra‛ lō ḥallō-nāy}, vesafun baerez {וְסָפוּן בָּאָ֔רֶז | və-sā-pûn bā-’ā-reṣ}, and umashoach bashashar {וּמָשׁ֖וֹחַ בַּשָּׁשַֽׁר | ū-mā-šō-aḥ bā-šā-šar} portrays progressive luxury enhancements. The English rendition preserves the Hebrew order and uses parallel verb phrases to maintain the cumulative effect of opulence.

In contextJeremiah 22:14

The one who says, “I will build myself a house of great dimensions and spacious upper rooms, and he cuts out windows in it, panels it with cedar, and paints it with vermilion .”
