Exegesis
Tsiklag {צִקְלַג | ṣîq-laḡ} functions as a proper noun; Beit-hamarkavot {בֵית־הַמַּרְכָּבוֹת | bêyt hammǎr-kă-ḇōṯ} conveys “house of the chariots” via a singular noun in construct linked to a feminine plural absolute with the definite article; Chatzar Susah {חֲצַר סוּסָה | ḥă-ṣār sû-sāh} couples a masculine singular absolute noun with a feminine singular construct proper noun. English retains these Hebrew constructs through “Beth” for בֵית and “Hazar” for חֲצַר, preserving the boundary-marker listing.
In context — Joshua 19:5
And Ziklag and Beth Hamarkavot and Hazar Susah.
