Exegesis
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.
Root and etymology
ד־ב־רd-b-r
“to speak”
In context — Joshua 21:28
