Exegesis
Finally, the phrase ve-a-khar ken ya-vo ha-kohen lir-ot et-ha-bayit {וְאַ֥חַר כֵּ֛ן יָבֹ֥א הַכֹּהֵ֖ן לִרְא֥וֹת אֶת־הַבָּֽיִת | wǝʾaḥar kēn yāḇōʾ hakkôhēn lirʾôt ʾet-habbāyîṯ} ‘and afterward thus the priest comes to inspect the house’ resumes the narrative sequence, marking the ritual’s completion. Translation renders Hebrew infinitive constructs with English finite verbs introduced by explicit temporal conjunctions to mirror the original’s causal and temporal flow.
