Exegesis
The second et {אֵת | ʾêt} marks the direct object Tamar {תָּמָר | ṯā-mār}, modified by achoto {אֲחֹתֽוֹ | ă-ḥō-tô} ‘his sister.’ The English rendering shifts to subject–verb–object order and places the causal clause after the main clause, preserving Hebrew emphasis while ensuring clarity.
In context — 2 Samuel 13:22
And Absalom did not speak with Amnon either for evil or for good, because Absalom hated Amnon on account of the matter that he had afflicted Tamar his sister.
