Exegesis

The phrase al-hachamor {עַֽל-הַחֲמ֔וֹר | ʿal-ha-ḥă-môr} ‘upon the donkey’ sets the spatial context before the protagonist, ha’ish {הָאִ֔ישׁ | hā-ʾîš} ‘the man’, moves to his destination, limekomo {לִמְקֹמֽוֹ | li-mə-qō-mô} ‘to his place’. This structure preserves the Hebrew’s brisk pacing and dramatic tension in translation.
