COMMENTS

*1 This is Rashis translation---it is spatial.
However, Radack translates the verse temporally
--------------------------------------------------
The blessings will LAST AS LONG as
the expanses of the earth remain (that is forever)
--------------------------------------------------
*2 Either EXPANSES or BORDERS is a legitimate translation
*3 The passive form of the verb to DESIRE means TO BE DESIRED--that
is, to be DESIRABLE
*4 The FEELING of desire takes the FORM--or more precisely, leads
to actions which have the form of EXPANSION. See LIST810b
for other examples of items named by their FORM and APPEARANCE
