Exegesis
The phrase mi-benei yisrael {מִבְּנֵ֨י יִשְׂרָאֵ֜ל | mibənê yiśrāʾêl} ‘from the sons of Israel’ is coordinated with ū-min ha-ger ha-gar {וּמִן־הַגֵּ֣ר הַגָּ֣ר | ūmin ha-gēr hagār} ‘and from the sojourner, the resident’, thus extending the injunction to natives and resident aliens.
In context — Leviticus 20:2
And to the sons of Israel you shall say: Any man, any man from the sons of Israel and any sojourner in Israel who gives any of his offspring to Molech shall surely be put to death; the people of the land shall stone him with stones .
