Exegesis
A rhythmic series of prepositional phrases—beyni {בֵּינִי | bê-nî} ‘between Me’, uveineichem {וּבֵינֵיכֶם | û-bê-nê-ḵem} ‘and between you’, and uvein zarakha acharekha {וּבֵין זַרְעֲךָ אַחֲרֶיךָ | û-bên zar-ʿă-ḵā ʾa-ḥa-rê-ḵā} ‘and between your offspring after you’—frames the relational and generational scope.
In context — Genesis 17:10
This is My covenant that you are to keep between Me and you and your descendants after you: every male among you must be circumcised.
