יִשְׂרְאֵלִי

Leviticus 24:10 יִשְׂרְאֵלִ֔ית הַיִּשְׂרְאֵלִ֔ית הַיִּשְׂרְאֵלִֽי׃ Israelite, the Israelite [woman], the Israelite[s]

Now the son of an Israelite mother and an Egyptian father went out among the Israelites, and a fight broke out in the camp between him and an Israelite.

Leviticus 24:11 הַיִּשְׂרְאֵלִ֤ית <the> Israelite

The son of the Israelite woman blasphemed the Name with a curse. So they brought him to Moses. (His mother’s name was Shelomith daughter of Dibri, of the tribe of Dan.)

Here: 'The Israelite.' The adjective is rare. It marks the mother as Israelite against the Egyptian father, so the son stands between the two peoples.

2 Samuel 17:25 הַיִּשְׂרְאֵלִ֔י the Israelite

Absalom had appointed Amasa over the army in place of Joab. Amasa was the son of a man named Ithra, the Ishmaelite who had married Abigail, the daughter of Nahash and sister of Zeruiah the mother of Joab.

Here: The Hebrew as it stands says 'the Israelite'. 1 Chronicles 2:17 reads 'the Ishmaelite', and many scholars think that is the original. Calling an Israelite 'the Israelite' in Israel's own story would be an oddly pointless label (see textual notes).
