Exegesis
The repetition in vayireh {וַיִּרְאֶ֕ה | wa-yir-ʾeh} intensifies witnessing, leading into the negative clause velo yaaseh kahen {וְלֹ֥א יַעֲשֶׂ֖ה כָּהֵֽן | wə-lōʾ ya-ʿă-śeh kā-hēn}, which marks the deliberate moral break. The interplay of perfect and wayyiqtol forms contrasts completed past actions with potential conduct. The adverbial demonstrative kahen encapsulates the pattern the son refuses to replicate.
