Exegesis
The Hebrew locative expression lamakom {לַמָּקוֹם | lă-mā-qōm} ‘to the place’ with the demonstrative hahu {הַה֔וּא | hă-hūʾ} ‘that’ establishes the spatial referent for the naming action.
In context — Numbers 13:24
That place was called the Valley of Eshcol because of the cluster which the sons of Israel cut off from there.
