What is the meaning of "v'Hetalti"?
Why does it say "Asher Yeladascha"?
Radak: He resembled her regarding evil deeds. This is why his mother's name is mentioned in Melachim II, 24:8 - the son resembled his mother.
Malbim: It is not enough to say "Imecha", for also one who raises a child is called "Em".
Why does it say "Al ha'Aretz Acheres"?
Radak: Sometimes the prefix Hei ha'Yedi'ah (to identify) is before the noun, and not before the adjective, e.g. "ha'Gefen Nochriyah" (2:21), "ha'Keves Echad" (Bamidbar 28:4), "ha'Dud Echad" (24:2).
Malbim: It is as if it says Al ha'Aretz, Eretz Acheres. Because [Yisrael] was compared to a bird that nests in cedars, it says that it was cast from the cedar to the ground, and from the ground to another land.
What is the significance that you were not born there?
Radak: You will not find kin there that will have mercy on you.
Why does it add "there you will die"?
Radak: Also this is a curse - you will die in a Tamei land.
