Exegesis
The temporal preposition ʿad {עַד | ʿad} governs the Hiphil infinitive construct hōrîšô {הוֹרִישׁוֹ | hō-rî-šō} ‘to dispossess’, indicating the duration of the obligation, with mip̄ānāw {מִפָּנָיו | mip-pā-nāw} ‘from before him’ specifying divine agency. English word order preserves Hebrew thematic progression, emphasizing collective duty and divine action.
