Exegesis
In the second clause, the universal subject kol ha-ezrach {כָּל־הָאֶזְרָח֙ | kol hä-ʾe-zraḥ} ‘all the native-born’ combines with the locative beyisrael {בְּיִשְׂרָאֵ֔ל | bə-yis-rā-ʾēl} ‘in Israel,’ and repeats the imperfect yeshvu {יֵשְׁב֖וּ | ye-šə-vû} ‘they will dwell’ with the same prepositional phrase, forming parallelism that underscores communal inclusion in the festival. The Hebrew fronting and repetition reinforce the collective nature of Sukkot, which is preserved in English by mirroring the syntax and repeated phrase “dwell in booths.”
Root and etymology
z-r-hzayin-resh-chet
“to rise, sprout”
In context — Leviticus 23:42
You shall dwell in booths for seven days; all the native-born of Israel shall dwell in booths.
