Exodus 10:12

And the LORD said unto Moses: ‘Stretch out thy hand over the land of Egypt for the locusts, that they may come up upon the land of Egypt, and eat every herb of the land, even all that the hail hath left.’

God tells Moses to stretch out his hand 'ba'arbeh' (with/in the locusts). What is puzzling about the prefix on the word ba'arbeh?

Look closely. What seems repeated, missing, out of order, or strange?
