Exegesis

The status shift is encoded in ū-miyyōm ha-šəmīnî wā-hālāʾ {וּמִיּוֹם הַשְּׁמִינִי וָהָלְאָה | ū-miyyōm ha-šəmīnî wā-hālāʾ} 'from the eighth day onward', where the Nifal yērāṣeh {יֵרָצֶה | yērāṣeh} 'it will be accepted' functions quasi-passively to foreground divine reception.

In context — Leviticus 22:27

When an ox, a lamb, or a goat is born, it must remain under its mother for seven days ; but from the eighth day onward, it will be accepted as a fire offering to the LORD .
