Exegesis
The final pair arim ve-chatzrei-hen {עָרִ֥ים ... וְחַצְרֵיהֶֽן | ʿā-rîm ... wə-ḥa-ṣrê-hen} “cities and their villages” is modified by the compound shesh-esre {שֵׁשׁ-עֶשְׂרֵ֖ה | šeš-ʿeś-rê-ʾ} “sixteen.” English SVO order preserves the verse’s temporal progression and list structure while ensuring clarity.
