Exegesis
The geographic chain hā-ʾāreṣ lə-ʿāreh-yāhā bigv̱ulōṯ ʿārē hā-ʾāreṣ sāḇîḇ {הָאָרֶץ לְעָרֶיהָ בִּגְבֻלֹת עָרֵי הָאָרֶץ סָבִיב} ‘the land with its cities within the borders, the cities of the land all around’ uses nested constructs to emphasize the completeness of the allotment. English asyndeton and em dashes preserve the exhaustive listing and highlight scope.
