Exegesis
This pattern recurs with ittai {אִתַּי֙ | ʾî-ṭṭay} and ben-ribai {בֶּן־רִיבַ֔י | ben-rî-vay}, after which the prepositional phrase migivat {מִגִּבְעַ֖ת | mi-ḡbā‘at} introduces the location and bene vinyamin {בְּנֵ֥י־בִנְיָמִֽן | bə-nē bin-yā-mîn} specifies tribal affiliation. The asyndetic list conveys equal status among David’s warriors and preserves the Hebrew genealogical structure in English.
In context — 2 Samuel 23:29
Heleb son of Baanah the Netophathite and Ittai son of Ribai of Gibeah among the sons of Benjamin .
