Exegesis

The niphal perfect noda {נוֹדַע | nō-ḏāʿ} ‘it was known’ functions as a factual prerequisite, with ki {כִּי | kî} ‘that’ introducing the qualifying clause.

In contextExodus 21:36

But if it is known that the bull was a habitual gorer from yesterday or the day before yesterday, and its owner did not guard it , he must pay bull for bull, and the dead animal will be his.
