Exegesis
The causal particle ki {כִּ֣י | kî} introduces a reason clause with mashchatam {מָשְׁחָתָ֤ם | māšḥātām} ‘corruption’ + bahem {בָּהֶם֙ | bāhem} ‘in them’ and mum {מ֣וּם | mūm} ‘defect’ + bam {בָּ֔ם | bām} ‘in them,’ intensifying disqualification.
In context — Leviticus 22:25
And from the hand of a foreigner you shall not bring the bread of your God from any of these, for their corruption is in them; a defect is in them, and they will not be accepted for you.
