Exegesis
The temporal adverbial ad-ha’arev {עַד־הָעָרֶב | ʿad-hā-ʿā-reḇ} ‘until the evening’ sets the duration of uncleanness. Sequential vav conjunctions link the actions, and maintaining Hebrew word order in English preserves the procedural emphasis of the law.
Root and etymology
ʿ-r-bayin-resh-bet

And a man who touches his bed shall wash his clothes , and bathe in water , and he shall be unclean until the evening.
