Exegesis
The two objects are each introduced with ʾet {אֶת | ʾet} to mark the definite patient of the action, while hāʿēṣîm {הָעֵצִים | hāʿēṣîm} ‘the wood’ occurs both before and after the animal, framing the whole procedure around the prepared fuel-bed of the altar.
In context — 1 Kings 18:33
He arranged the wood , cut the bull into pieces, and placed it on the wood.
