Exegesis
The verse employs sequential vav-consecutive verbs, beginning with vayosef {וַיּ֥וֹסֶף | va-yō-səp̄} 'and he continued' and vayya'amod {וַֽיַּעֲמֹד֙ | va-yă-ʿă-mōḏ} 'and he stood,' which drive the narrative forward.
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.
