Exegesis
The coordinated terms Rabbith {רַבִּית | rab-bîṯ}, Kishion {קִשְׁיוֹן | kiš-yōn}, and Ebez {אָבֶץ | ’ā-ḇeṣ} function as distinct geographic markers delineating Issachar’s territory. The repeated vav prefix functions both coordinatively and sequentially to emphasize the comprehensive enumeration of these localities.
Root and etymology
r-b-bresh–bet–bet
