Exegesis

The verse opens with the conjunctive participle uphinechas {וּפִינְחָס | û-pîn-ḥāš} ‘and Phinehas’, immediately followed by the construct chain ben-eleazar ben-aharon {בֶּן־אֶלְעָזָר בֶּן־אַהֲרֹן | ben-ʾel-ʿā-zār ben-ʾa-hǎ-rôn} establishing priestly lineage.

In contextJudges 20:28

And Phinehas, the son of Eleazar, the son of Aharon, stood before the LORD in those days, saying, “Shall I go out again to battle the sons of Benjamin, my brother , or shall I cease?” And the LORD said, “Go up, for tomorrow I will give them into your hand.”
