Exegesis
The coordinated prepositional phrases beveged tsemer o beveged pishtim {בְּבֶגֶד צֶמֶר א֖וֹ בְּבֶגֶד פִּשְׁתִּֽים} analyze the material, contrasting tsemer {צֶמֶר | ṯēmer} ‘wool’ with pishtim {פִּשְׁתִּֽים | pištîm} ‘linen.’ The repetition of beveged underscores legal precision. In English, the protasis is rendered with “if” in both formal and dynamic translations, with the formal preserving the initial conjunction for continuity and the dynamic placing it at the outset for immediacy.
