Exegesis
The infinitive avor {עֲב֑וֹר | ʿă-vôr} 'to pass over' introduces the intended movement, immediately bounded by the phrase bemaqom {בְּמָק֣וֹם | bə-mā-qôm} 'in a place' modified by tsar {צָ֔ר | ṣār} 'narrow,' creating a tightly confined setting.
In context — Numbers 22:26
And the angel of the LORD continued on and stood in a narrow place , where there was no way to turn right or left.
