Leviticus 24:10-23 tells the story of a certain man, whose name is not given. He was the son of an Israelite mother, Shelomith, daughter of Dibri of the tribe of Dan. He had an Egyptian father who is not given a name (v. 10). Shelomith's son, in the course of a quarrel with another Israelite, blasphemed, using the Divine Name.
