Exegesis
The construct phrase behar-kodshi {בְּהַר־קָדְשִׁי | bə-har-qod-šî} (‘on My holy mountain’) and its parallel behar merom yisrael {בְּהַר מְרוֹם יִשְׂרָאֵל | bə-har-mə-rôm-yiś-rā-ʾēl} (‘on the mountain height of Israel’) establish divine possession and geographic elevation through two linked construct chains.
In context — Ezekiel 20:40
For on My holy mountain, on the mountain height of Israel, declares the Lord GOD , there all the house of Israel, every one of them, shall serve Me in the land; there I will accept them, and there I will require your offerings and firstfruits, with all your holy things .
