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.
