Exegesis
The existential ein kasef {אֵין כָּסֶף | ʾēn kā·sep̄} ‘there is no silver’ underscores the absence of monetary compensation. This protasis–apodosis legal pattern, structured by the chiastic pairing of duty (does…for her) and freedom (goes out…no silver), balances obligation and release.
In context — Exodus 21:11
And if he does not perform these three obligations for her, she shall go out free without money .
