Exegesis
The relative clause asher tasig yado {אֲשֶׁר תַּשִּׂיג יָד֑וֹ | a-šer ta-šîḡ yā-ḏô} ‘which his hand can reach’ functions as an economic qualifier.
In context — Leviticus 14:22
And two doves or two sons of the dove that his hand can afford, one shall be for a sin offering and the other for a burnt offering.
