Exegesis
The noun tənūp̄āh {תְּנוּפָה | tə-nū-pāh} ‘wave offering’ designates a specific ritual act, while li-pənê YHWH {לִפְנֵי יְהוָה | li-pə-nê Yə-hō-wāh} ‘before the LORD’ places the sequence within the divine presence, emphasizing the theocentric focus of the ritual. This syntactic ordering preserves both the chronological flow and the theological emphasis of presentation.
