Exegesis

The relative clause asher sam shemo yisrael {אֲשֶׁר שָׂם שְׁמוֹ יִשְׂרָאֵל | ǎ·šer sām še·mô yis·rā·’êl} links personal identity to covenant renaming. English syntax mirrors the Hebrew sequence to preserve the progression of participial actions, negations, and the cumulative listing of law.

In context2 Kings 17:34

Until this day they do not fear the LORD and continue in their former judgments , neglecting their statutes, judgments, the law, and the commandment that the LORD commanded the sons of Jacob, whom He named Israel.
