Exegesis
The direct-object marker et {אֶת־ | ʾet} introduces par ha-chatat {פַּר הַחַטָּאת | p̄ār ha-ḥaṭ-ṭāṯ} ‘the bull of the sin offering,’ and the relative clause asher-lo {אֲשֶׁר־ל֑וֹ | ʾă-šer-lō} ‘which is for him’ specifies its personal ownership.
In context — Leviticus 16:6
And Aaron shall bring near the bull of the sin offering which is for himself, and he shall make atonement for himself and for his household.
