Exegesis
It continues with matsaah {מָצְאָה | maṣəʼāh} ‘finds’ and neʼekhal {נֶאֱכַל | nē’ēḵal} ‘is consumed’, listing kotsim {קֹצִים | qōṣîm} ‘thorns’, gadish {גָּדִישׁ | gāḏîš} ‘heap’, haqamāh {הַקָּמָה | ha-qāmāh} ‘standing grain’, and hasadeh {הַשָּׂדֶה | ha-sādeh} ‘field’, linked by the disjunctive o {אוֹ | ’ō} ‘or’ to enumerate the objects at risk.
In context — Exodus 22:6
If a fire goes out and finds thorns, and a heap or the standing grain or the field is consumed, the one who kindled the burning must make complete restitution.
