Exegesis
The setting bammachaneh {בַּֽמַּחֲנֶ֔ה | ba-maḥănēh} ‘in the camp’ frames the scene; and the final parallel construct ben hayisreelit {בֶּ֚ן הַיִּשְׂרְאֵלִ֔ית | ben hayyiśrēʾēlît} ‘the son of the Israelite woman’ versus ve-ish hayisreeli {וְאִ֖ישׁ הַיִּשְׂרָאֵלִֽי | wəʾîš hayyiśrāʾēlî} ‘and a man of Israel’ reinforces the thematic contrast of lineage within community.
In context — Leviticus 24:10
And the son of an Israelite woman —but he was the son of an Egyptian man—went out among the sons of Israel . And they fought in the camp between the son of the Israelite woman and an Israelite man.
