(Ezk 38:3 and 39:1 are the same as 38:2)
Those look syntactically parallel to me. Also the Masoretic accentuation,
for whatever it's worth, divides these phrases _the same way_. In each of
the five cases of N&Y) + RO)$, the Masoretes accent N&Y) with zaqef (zaqef
qatan in Num, zaqef gadol in Ezek), thus marking N&Y) as the end of a
phrase. I can't really see any syntactical distinctiveness of Num 10:4; 36:1
over against Ezk 38:2, 3; 39:1. The syntax looks analogous to me.
As I suggested in my long post of 12/25, RO)$ and N&Y) seem to be appositive
in each of the 5 cases where they appear side-by-side.
