Exegesis
Finally, the vav-consecutive ve-avadta {וְעָבַדְתָּ֛ | və-ʿā-ḇad-tā} issues the obligation, and the temporal phrase ba-chodesh ha-zeh {בַּחֹדֶשׁ הַזֶּה | ba-ḥō-deš haz-zé} specifies the appointed month.
In context — Exodus 13:5
When the LORD brings you into the land of the Canaanites, Hittites, Amorites, Hivites, and Jebusites—which He swore to your fathers to give you, a land flowing with milk and honey—then you shall carry out this service in this month.
