Exegesis
Subsequent boundary markers include hayarden {הַיַּרְדֵּ֖ן | ha-yăr-dên} ‘the Jordan’, uve-vul {וּגְבֻ֑ל | u-ḡə-vûl} ‘and border’, ad-ketseh {עַד־קְצֵה֙ | ʿad-ḳə-ṯsé} ‘up to the edge’, and yam-kinneret {יָם־כִּנֶּ֔רֶת | yām-kin-né-ret} ‘Sea of Kinneret’.
The final clause ever hayarden mizrachah {עֵ֥בֶר הַיַּרְדֵּ֖ן מִזְרָֽחָה | ʿé-ber ha-yăr-dên miz-ra-ḥā} ‘beyond the Jordan eastward’ specifies the eastern limit. The chain of vav-linked nominals produces a catalog effect maintained in English through coordinated listing and directional phrasing.

And in the valley were Beit-Haram, Beit-Nimrah, Sukkoth, and Zaphon, the remainder of the kingdom of Sihon king of Heshbon; and the Jordan with its border up to the edge of the Sea of Kinneret eastward .
