1. I would not read into the cantillation marks more than the
minimum: the ZAQEP QATAN over the 3rd, the 6th and the 13th word of
the verse is a comma, while the ETNAXTA under YRU$ALAIM is a semicolon.
2. The TIPXA before the ETNAXTA is regularly read less emphatically
than the same TIPXA before the climactic SOP-PASUQ, this is at least
how I do it.
3. The acts of God, namely, שבתי $ABTIY and ושכנתי W-
$AKANTIY are, in my opinion, timeless.
4. It appears to me that the W of ושכנתי W-$AKANTIY is the
English 'and', while the W of ונקראה W-NIQRAH is the English
'then'.
