Exegesis

The conjunction u- {וּ־ | ŭ} ‘and’ merges with bayom {בַּיּוֹם | ba-yôm} ‘on the day’, and ha-shviʾi {הַשְּׁבִיעִי | ha-šə-vi-ʿî} ‘the seventh’ introduces ʿaṣeret {עֲצֶרֶת | ʿă-ṣê-ret} ‘assembly’.

In context — Deuteronomy 16:8

For six days you shall eat unleavened breads, and on the seventh day there shall be an assembly to the LORD your God ; you shall not do any work .
