Exegesis

The transition to animal products is marked by o bə-ʿôr {אוֹ בְּעוֹר | ô bə-ʿôr} ‘in leather’ and o bə-khol-mə-le-ḵet ʿôr {אוֹ בְּכָל־מְלֶאכֶת עוֹר | ô bə-khol-mə-le-ḵet ʿôr} ‘in any work of leather,’ where the construct chain signals inclusivity. Each prepositional phrase with בְּ highlights the spatial occurrence of the condition, and the structure preserves the Hebrew legal emphasis on an exhaustive list.
