Exegesis
The object naḥālāh {נַחֲלָה | naḥālāh} “inheritance” is granted to liyĕhōšûaʿ {לִיהוֹשֻׁעַ | liyĕhōšûaʿ} “to Joshua,” with bin nûn {בִּן־נ֖וּן | bin nûn} “son of Nun,” and closed by the locative bətōḵām {בְּתוֹכָֽם | bətōḵām} “among them.” The Hebrew’s sequential vav clauses, infinitive construct for purpose, and construct chains for possession are rendered in English through conjunctions and prepositional phrases while preserving syntactic flow and theological clarity.
