Exegesis
The noun ish {אִ֖ישׁ | yîš} ‘man’ functions distributively, while the preposition el {אֶל־ | ʾel-} ‘to’ links to achuzzato {אֲחֻזָּתֽוֹ | ʾă-ḥû-zā-ṯô} ‘his holding,’ whose pronominal suffix anchors each property to its original owner. This construct chain underscores inalienable ancestral rights and reflects the covenantal framework of Israelite land tenure.
