Exegesis

The verbs ve-yatsa {וְיָצָ֥א | wə-yā-ṣāʼ} ‘and it went out’ and ve-alah {וְעָלָ֥ה | wə-ʿā-lā} ‘and it ascended’ mark progressive movements toward Daberath and Japhi’a. The English rendering adheres closely to Hebrew word order to preserve the step-by-step progression of the boundary description.
