Dear All,

Does anyone have any idea why there is no mappiq in the last letter of the
word LH, third word from last in Num. 32:42? The mappiq is missing in both
BHS and in the Aleppo-based Breuer prints.

Consider the difference between v.v. 41 and 42: ethen vs. lah. To name
villages, the author uses preposition ethen. IMO, hey in lah is
destinative suffix (like in baita) rather than feminine. 32:42 goes
about multiple objects, so single feminine lah is unlikely. IMO,
bnoteiha refers to built-up area rather than strictly villages, thus
destinative suffix. Just a guess for the lack of a better explanation.
