Exegesis

The phrase mi-yaveish Gil’ad {מִיָּבֵישׁ גִּלְעָד | mî-ya-ḇê-š gil-ʿāḏ} ‘from Jabesh Gilead’ precedes el-ha-kahal {אֶל־הַקָּהָל | ʾel-ha-qā-hāl} ‘to the assembly’. The repetition of waw-consecutive verbs and the embedding of relative and prepositional phrases echo Hebrew narrative pacing and underscore the absence of representatives from Jabesh Gilead.

In context — Judges 21:8

And they said, “Who is the one from the tribes of Israel who did not go up to the LORD at Mizpah?” And behold, no man came to the camp from Jabesh Gilead to the assembly .
