Exegesis
Finally, the Qal perfect vesarfu {וְשָׂרְפוּ | və-śār-pû} ‘and they shall burn’ takes the distributive direct objects et-orotam {אֶת־עֹרֹתָם | ʾet-ʿō-rō-ṯām}, ve-et-besaram {וְאֶת־בְּשָׂרָם | vә-ʾet-be-sā-rām}, and ve-et-pirsham {וְאֶת־פִּרְשָׁם | vә-ʾet-pir-šām}, underscoring complete removal and destruction of the sacrificial remains in accordance with Levitical purity regulations.
In context — Leviticus 16:27
The bull of the sin offering and the goat of the sin offering, whose blood was brought to make atonement in the holy place, shall be brought out outside the camp; and their skins and their flesh and their dung shall be burned in the fire.
