Exegesis
The construct phrase hā-šəlîšît mikkem {הַשְּׁלִשִׁית מִכֶּם | ha-šəlîšît mikkem} “the third part from you” defines the subset, while the participial temporal clause bāʾê ha-šabbāt {בָּאֵי הַשַׁבָּת | bāʾê ha-shabbat} “those coming on the Sabbath” specifies timing.
In context — 2 Chronicles 23:4
This is what you are to do: one third of you who come on the Sabbath—those from the priests and the Levites—shall serve as gatekeepers at the thresholds .
