Exegesis

The destination is specified by the proper noun hor {הֹ֥ר | ḥôr} ‘Hor’ in apposition to the definite noun ha-har {הָהָֽר | hā-hār} ‘the mountain’, highlighting precise geography. English preserves the Hebrew sequence of departure and arrival and renders the apposition to convey collective emphasis.
