Exegesis
The coordinated action heviu {הֵבִיאוּ | hê·ḇî·ʾū} “they brought” and the numerical expressions bakar sheva meot {בָּקָר שְׁבַע מֵאוֹת | bā·qār šĕ·ḇaʿ mē·ʾōṯ} “cattle, seven hundreds” and vetson shivat alafim {וְצֹאן שִׁבְעַת אֲלָפִים | wə·ṣō·ʾn šî·ḇaʿ·ăt ʾă·lā·p̄îm} “and sheep/goats, seven thousands” follow Hebrew number syntax. The construct chain shivat alafim emphasizes precise totals. English maintains Hebrew sequencing to highlight origin and magnitude of the sacrifice.
