Exegesis
In the coordinate clause, velo yad’u {וְלֹא יָדְעוּ | wə-lōʾ yā-ḏə-ʿû} ‘and did not know’ heads their ignorance toward kol davar {כָּל־דָּבָר | kol ḏā-ḇār} ‘any matter’. The repeated vav conjunction links clauses and participles into a rhythmic narrative chain. Formal English clarifies the idiom and passive nuance, while the dynamic rendering integrates participial action for natural flow.
