Exegesis
The narrative begins with the temporal marker be’adayn {בֵּאדַ֨יִן | bə-ʾeḏāyin} ‘then,’ indicating a shift in the sequence.
The Pael infinitive le-meze {לְמֵזֵ֣א | lə-me-zē} with the distributive numeral had-shiv’a {חַ֨ד־שִׁבְעָ֔ה | ḥad-šiḇ-ʿā} intensifies the heating action, and the comparative clause al-di chazeh le-mezyeh {עַל־דִּ֥י חֲזֵ֖ה לְמֵזְיֵֽיהּ | ʿal-dî ḥa-zē lə-me-zyēh} ‘beyond what was customary to be heated’ specifies its extent.
