Exegesis
The direct object marker et {אֶת־ | ʾet} introduces khôdeš hā-ʾā-vîḇ {חֹדֶשׁ הָאָבִיב | ḥō-ḏeš hā-ʾā-vîḇ} ‘month of Aviv’, setting the festival timeframe.
The conjunction kî {כִּי | kî} introduces the reason clause with bə-ḥō-ḏeš hā-ʾā-vîḇ {בְּחֹדֶשׁ הָאָבִיב | bə-ḥō-ḏeš hā-ʾā-vîḇ}.
In context — Deuteronomy 16:1
Keep watch over the month of Aviv and uphold the Passover to the LORD your God , because it was in Aviv, by night, that the LORD your God brought you out of Egypt.
