Exegesis
The imperfect yiṯ-mā‘ {יִטְמָ֥א | yiṯ-mā‘} ‘shall become unclean’ prescribes ritual status, and the delimiting phrase ʿad hā-ʾā-reḇ {עַד־הָעָֽרֶב | ʿad hā-ʾā-reḇ} ‘until the evening’ sets the temporal boundary. This protasis–apodosis pattern with temporal markers undergirds the law’s regulatory force, and the English version retains Hebrew clause order within an English SVO framework.
