Exegesis
The impersonal clause yihyēh lakhem {יִהְיֶ֤ה לָכֶם֙ | yihyēh lakhem} ‘there shall be for you’ introduces the ritual elements šabbāṭōn {שַׁבָּת֔וֹן | šabbāṭōn} ‘sabbath observance’, ziḵrōn tərûʿā {זִכְר֥וֹן תְּרוּעָ֖ה | ziḵrōn tərûʿā} ‘memorial of trumpet blast’, and miqrāʾ-qōdeš {מִקְרָא־קֹֽדֶשׁ | miqrāʾ-qōdeš} ‘holy convocation’. This triadic parallelism links rest, remembrance, and communal gathering, reflecting Hebrew asyndeton and reinforcing the theological significance of set-apart time.
In context — Leviticus 23:24
Speak to the sons of Israel and say: In the seventh month, on the first of the month, there shall be for you a sabbath observance, a memorial of trumpet blast, and a holy convocation .
