Exegesis

The negated perfect forms lō-ʾāḵal {לֹֽא־אָכַל | lō-ʾāḵal} and wə-lō šāḇar {וְלֹ֥א שָׁבַ֖ר | wə-lō šāḇar} mark completed actions that did not occur, and the direct-object markers ʾet-han-nəvelāh and ʾet-hă-ḥă-môr delineate their objects. In English, the passive state of the corpse is rendered “lying,” and participles are rendered as finite verbs to maintain narrative flow.
