Exegesis
The noun phrase mizbeach laYHWH {מִזְבֵּ֖חַ לַֽיהוָ֑ה | miz·bē·aḥ la·YHWH} ‘altar to the LORD’ appears initially as direct object and is then resumed by the pronominal suffix oto {אֹת֣וֹ | ’ō·ṯō} ‘it’, creating cohesion.
In context — 1 Samuel 14:35
And Saul built an altar to the LORD ; it was the first altar that he began to build to the LORD.
