v. 55 – For the alternative construct chain reading of בְּחֶ֣בֶל נַחֲלָ֑ה, see the Syr. "he placed them in the allotments of his inheritance."[1]

The alternative reading of בְּחֶ֣בֶל as modifying נַחֲלָ֑ה requires the understanding of בְּ as beth essentiae (so Hitzig 1863, 169; Delitzsch 1871, 373).

  1. ↑ So Taylor 2020, 323. The text reads ܘܐܪܡܝ ܐܢܘܢ ܒܚ̈ܒܠܐ ܕܝܪܬܘܬܗ.
