Exegesis
A series of prepositional phrases—ʾel haqqōdeš {אֶל־הַקֹּדֶשׁ | ʾel haqqōdeš} ‘into the sanctuary’, mibbēt lappārōḵeṯ {מִבֵּ֖ית לַפָּרֹכֶת | mibbēt lappārōḵeṯ} ‘inside the curtain’, and ʾel pənê hakkappōreṯ {אֶל־פְּנֵי הַכַּפֹּרֶת | ʾel pənê hakkappōreṯ} ‘before the atonement cover’—delineate sacred access, culminating in the relative clause ʾăšer ʿal hārōn {אֲשֶׁר עַל־הָאָרֹן | ʾăšer ʿal hārōn} specifying the ark.
In context — Leviticus 16:2
And the LORD said to Moses, “Speak to Aaron your brother that he must not enter at any time into the sanctuary inside the curtain, before the atonement cover that is on the ark, so that he will not die; for I will appear in the cloud upon the atonement cover.”
