Exegesis
The repetition of neum {נְאֻ֤ם | nǝʾûm} “utterance”—first associated with bilam beno beor {בִּלְעָם בְּנ֣וֹ בְעֹ֔ר | bilʿām bənô bəʿôr} “Balaam, son of Beor,” then with hagever {הַגֶּ֖בֶר | haggēver} “the man”—creates a parallel structure that emphasizes the dual attribution of the message.
In context — Numbers 24:15
And he lifted up his oracle and said, “The oracle of Balaam, son of Beor, and the oracle of the man whose eye is opened.”
