Exegesis
Finally, the prepositional phrase benakhal {בְּנַ֥חַל | bənăḥāl} ‘in the valley’ and the proper noun zared {זָֽרֶד | zāred} ‘Zered’ specify the campsite, following the Hebrew pattern of head noun plus place name. This perfect-to-vav-imperfect sequence exemplifies the paratactic narrative style that links movements and encampments in the desert setting.
In context — Numbers 21:12
From there they journeyed and camped in the valley of Zered.
