Exegesis
This is followed by the Qal perfect ve’asah {וְעָשָׂה | wə-ʿā-śāh} ‘and he does’, which heads a relative clause introduced by the distributive idiom me’achad me’eleh {מֵאַחַד מֵאֵלֶּה | mē-ʾa-ḥaḏ mē-ʾēl-leh} ‘any one of these’, expressing that any singular offense triggers the principle. The parallel structure links character description and action tightly, stressing moral accountability.
