Exegesis

Three sequential prepositional phrases—mibnei Yisrael {מִבְּנֵי יִשְׂרָאֵל | mib-bə-nê yis-ra-ʾel} 'from the sons of Israel', u-mizera hamelukhah {וּמִזֶּרַע הַמְּלוּכָה | û-miz-ze-raʿ ham-mə-lu-khāh} 'and from the royal seed', u-min hapartemim {וּמִן־הַפַּרְתְּמִים | û-min hap-par-te-mîm} 'and from the nobles'—specify the groups. The Hebrew sequence of noun phrases is rendered in English as a clear list to preserve hierarchy and scope.

In context — Daniel 1:3

The king directed Ashpenaz , chief of his eunuchs , to bring some from among the Israelites, including those from the royal line and the noble class.
