Exegesis
Within that speech, the coordinated imperatives kakh {קַ֚ח | qaḥ} ‘take’ and veten {וְתֶן | wə-ten} ‘and put’ frame the commands.
The first command specifies tsintsenet {צִנְצֶנֶת | ṣin-ṣe-neṯ} ‘jar’ with the numeral akhat {אַחַת | ʾa-ḥat} ‘one’, followed by shamah {שָׁמָּה | šām-māh} ‘there’ to indicate placement.
In context — Exodus 16:33
And Moses said to Aaron, “Take a jar, put in it a full omer of manna, and set it before the LORD for safekeeping for your generations.”
