Exegesis
The conjunction vav {וְ | wə} ‘and’ introduces a paratactic list of proper nouns: Elon {אֵיל֥וֹן | ʾē-lōn}, Timnah {תִמְנָ֖תָה | tim-nā-ṯā(h)}, and Ekron {עֶקְרֽוֹן | ʿeq-rōn}, each in the absolute state as typical for city names in narrative contexts. This verse lacks a finite verb, continuing the allotment sequence by simple conjunctional linkage. Retaining the Hebrew word order and rendering each vav as “and” preserves the enumerative rhythm, while bracketed glosses offer etymological insight where relevant.
