Exegesis
The negative existential lo yihyehbo {לֹא יִֽהְיֶה־בּוֹ | lōʾ yih-yēh-bō} ‘it shall not be in it’ combines the negative particle with the imperfect verb plus prefixed preposition and pronominal suffix to convey absolute absence. This syntactic arrangement enforces a divinely ordained cycle of work and rest, with apposition underscoring the Sabbath’s uniqueness and fronting highlighting the contrast.
In context — Exodus 16:26
For six days you shall gather it, but on the seventh day, the Sabbath , there will be none.
