Exegesis
The Hiphil perfect ve-hotsi {וְהוֹצִיא֙ | wə-hō-ṣîʾ} ‘and he shall bring out’ then frames removal via el michuts la-ir {אֶל־מִח֣וּץ לָעִ֔יר | ʾel mi-ḥûṣ lā-ʿîr} ‘to outside the city’ and a second el marking the destination el makom tame {אֶל־מָק֖וֹם טָמֵֽא | ʾel mā-qôm ṭā-meʾ} ‘to an unclean place’. The repetition of et and cumulative listing create asyndetic emphasis on the completeness of the demolition, while the paired prepositional phrases stress ritual exclusion beyond the community boundary.
In context — Leviticus 14:45
He shall tear down the house—its stones, its timbers, and all the plaster of the house—and he shall carry them outside the city to an unclean place.
