Exegesis
The phrase vela‘afar-mavet {וְלַעֲפַר־מָוֶת | və-la-ʿa-par mā-vēṯ} ‘and to the dust of death’ provides the spatial setting for the imperfect teshifteni {תְּשִׁפְתֵנִי | tə-šip-tê-nî} ‘You place me’, underscoring divine agency in consigning the sufferer to mortality’s realm.
In context — Psalm 22:15
My strength is dried up like a potsherd , and my tongue is stuck to my jaws; and You set me in the dust of death.
