Exegesis
The boundary extension ad-ʿaroer {עַד־עֲרוֹעֵ֕ר | ʿad-ʿă-rō-ʿêr} ‘as far as Aroer’ is followed by the relative clause asher al-penei rabbah {אֲשֶׁ֖ר עַל־פְּנֵ֥י רַבָּֽה | ʾa-šer ʿal-pə-nê rab-bāh} ‘which is before Rabbah’. The translation preserves Hebrew sequence and clarifies spatial relations by rendering al-penei as “before” or “across from,” maintaining the verse’s precise territorial delineation.
Root and etymology
‘-r-‘
“exposed, barren”
In context — Joshua 13:25
And their boundary was Jazer and all the cities of Gilead and half the land of the sons of Ammon up to Aroer which is before Rabbah.
