Exegesis
The final conjunct vekol hamishor al meidba {וְכָל־הַמִּישֹׁ֖ר עַל־מֵידְבָֽא | wə-ḵāl ham-mîšôr ʿal mēydəḇā} employs kol plus the noun to denote the entirety of the plain, with al indicating the extent to Medeba. English translation follows the Hebrew progression from general boundary to specific landmarks.
Root and etymology
y-sh-r
“level, straight”
In context — Joshua 13:16
Now the boundary for them extended from Aroer, which is on the edge of the Arnon Valley, through the city in the midst of the valley, and all the plain as far as Medeba.
