Exegesis
The location is specified by the spatial expression el–miḥûṣ lammachănê {אֶל־מִחוּץ לַמַּחֲנֶה | ʾel-miḥûṣ lammachănê} “to outside the camp,” combining prepositional el with the abstract miḥûṣ “outside” and the lammachaneh “the camp.”
In context — Numbers 19:3
And you shall give her to Eleazar the priest , and he shall bring her outside the camp, and he shall slaughter her before him .
