Exegesis
The vav consecutive wə-hāyāh {וְהָיָה | wə-hāyāh} 'then it shall be' signals progression to the temporal requirement marked by šivʿat yāmîm {שִׁבְעַת יָמִים | šivʿat yāmîm} 'seven days' and the spatial phrase taḥat immō {תַּחַת אִמּוֹ | taḥat ʾimmō} 'under its mother'.
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 .
