Exegesis
The proper name ʾEl-yā-sāṗ {אֶלְיָסָף | ʾĕl-yā-sāṗ} serves as the predicate, and the construct bĕn {בֶּן־ | bĕn} + rĕ-ʿū-ʾēl {רְעוּאֵל | rĕ-ʿū-ʾēl} indicates paternal lineage. This verbless structure emphasizes direct identification and authority in the census context.
In context — Numbers 2:14
And the tribe of Gad and the leader of the sons of Gad was Elyasaf , son of Reuel.
