Exegesis
The phrases et-kishyon {אֶת־קִשְׁי֖וֹן | ʾet-kiš-yōn} and ve-et-migrasheha {וְאֶת־מִגְרָשֶׁ֑הָ | wə-ʾet-mi-grā-šê-hā} form a direct object sequence introducing Kishion and its pasturelands, with the suffixed pronoun on migrasheha linking land to town.
This pattern repeats with et-davrat {אֶת־דָּֽבְרַ֖ת | ʾet-dā-ḇrāṯ} and ve-et-migrasheha {וְאֶת־מִגְרָשֶֽׁהָ | wə-ʾet-mi-grā-šê-hā} for Daberath. The absence of an explicit verb relies on the narrative framework of Levitical allotment to imply “were given,” while the parallel structure emphasizes each city–land pairing.
