Exegesis
In the second clause, ve-shav ha-gevul chosa {וְשָׁב הַגְּבוּל חֹסָה | wə-šāv ha-gebul ḥō-sāh} repeats this pattern, then ve-hayu {וְהָיוּ | wə-hā-yū} ‘and were’ links to totse’otav {תֹצְאֹתָיו | tō-ṣō-’ō-tāw} ‘its outlets’.
In context — Joshua 19:29
And the boundary turned back toward Ramah and reached the fortified city of Tyre; then it turned back to Hosah, and its outlets reached the sea from the territory of Akzib , including Mahalab.
