Exegesis

The conjunction wa-amar li {וַאֲמַר־לִ֕י | wa-ʾă-mar-lî} ‘and he said to me’ introduces the response, followed by upeshar millaya yehodenanni {וּפְשַׁ֥ר מִלַּיָּ֖א יְהוֹדְעִנַּֽנִי | û-pə-šar mil-lay-yā yə-hō-ḏ-ʿin-nān-nî} ‘and the interpretation of the words he made me know’, where peshar {פְשַׁ֥ר | pə-šar} ‘interpretation’ and millaya {מִלַּיָּ֖א | mil-lay-yā} ‘words’ form an object chain denoting revelation. The structure moves from inquiry to authoritative disclosure with clear relational specificity.
