Exegesis
The Hebrew employs parallel infinitive absolute forms followed by imperfect verbs to intensify the command: patoach {פָתֹחַ | pā-tō-ʼaḥ} ‘infinitive absolute’ with its paired imperfect tiftach {תִּפְתַּח | tîp-taḥ} ‘imperfect’, and similarly vehaavet {וְהַעֲבֵט | və-hă-‘ă-ḇêṭ} ‘infinitive absolute’ with its imperfect taavittenu {תַּעֲבִיטֶנּוּ | ta-‘ă-bî-ṭen-nû} ‘imperfect’.
In context — Deuteronomy 15:8
But you shall surely open your hand to him and shall surely lend him enough for his need , whatever he may lack.
