Exegesis
The prepositional phrase min-yisrāʾēl {מִיּשְׂרָאֵל | min-yisrāʾēl} ‘from Israel’ sets the boundary of membership. In Hebrew the law precedes the action, highlighting its authority as the catalyst for separation.
In context — Nehemiah 13:3
And it happened, when they heard the law , that they separated all the mixed multitude from Israel.
