Exegesis
Following this, wə-nāṯan {وְנָתַן | wə-nāṯan} ‘and he shall give’ governs lā-kōhên {לַכֹּהֵן | la-kōhên} ‘to the priest,’ with ʾet-hā-qōdeš {אֶת־הַקֹּדֶשׁ | ʾet-hā-qōdeš} ‘the sacred thing’ specifying what is restored. The sequence of waw-consecutive perfect forms structures a legal stipulation and underscores the requirement of precise restitution to maintain ritual purity.
