Exegesis
Two sequential imperfect verbs tîhyēnâ {תִּהְיֶינָה | tîhyēnâ} and teʾāpēnâ {תֵּאָפֶ֑ינָה | teʾāpēnâ} describe the leavening and baking stages, reinforcing ritual order.
In context — Leviticus 23:17
From your dwellings you shall bring two loaves of fine flour as a wave offering of two tenths; they shall be leavened and baked as firstfruits to the LORD.
