Exegesis
The noun phrase kol-bekhor {כָּל־בְּכוֹר | kol-bə-khor} ‘all the firstborn’ functions as the subject of two coordinated clauses introduced by the temporal prepositional phrase be-yom hak-kō-tî {בְּיוֹם הַכֹּתִי | bə-yōm hak-kō-tî} ‘on the day that I struck’ and the Hifʿil perfect hiq-dash-tî {הִקְדַּשְׁתִּי | hiq-dash-tî} ‘I sanctified’.
In context — Numbers 3:13
For every firstborn is Mine; on the day that I struck down every firstborn in the land of Egypt, I set apart for Myself every firstborn in Israel, from human to animal. They shall be Mine. I am the LORD .
