Exegesis
The infinitive absolute heʾakhol {הֵאָכֹל | hê-ʾă-kôl} functions as a substantivized object, reinforced by the Nifal imperfect yeʾakhel {יֵאָכֵל | yē-ʾā-qēl}, intensifying the act of consumption.
In context — Leviticus 19:7
And if any of the meat is eaten on the third day, it is an abomination ; it will not be accepted.
