Exegesis
The relative asher {אֲשֶׁ֣ר | ʾa-šer} ‘which’ links the dust to the scraping, while the prepositional phrases mi-chuts {מִחוּץ | mi-chuts} ‘outside,’ la-ʾir {לָעִ֔יר | la-ʾir} ‘to the city,’ and ma-kom tame {מָק֖וֹם טָמֵֽא | ma-kom tame} ‘ritually impure place’ outline sequential spatial removal, underscoring separation central to purity laws. The translation preserves Hebrew order and ritual terminology while enhancing clarity in English.
In context — Leviticus 14:41
And he shall scrape the house all around from within, and they shall pour out the dust that they have scraped off to the outside of the city, to an unclean place.
