Exegesis
The bound union ki-yakrib {כִּֽי־יַקְרִ֥יב | kiy-yakriḇ} ‘when he brings near’ introduces a conditional temporal clause with the Hifil voice denoting causative offering. The phrase mikkem ‘from among you’ assigns the obligation to Israelites. The tripartite listing of livestock—min-ha-behemah, min-ha-bakar, u-min-ha-tsoan—creates a merism to include all sacrificial animals.
In context — Leviticus 1:2
Speak to the sons of Israel and say to them, "When a man brings an offering from among you to the LORD , from the livestock, from the herd, or from the flock, you shall bring your offering."
