Exegesis
The paired prepositional phrases lechatat {לְחַטָּ֑את | ləḥaṭṭāʾt} ‘for sin offering’ and lezevach shelamim {לְזֶ֥בַח שְׁלָמִֽים | ləzevāḥ šəlāmîm} ‘for sacrifice of peace offerings’ articulate sequential functions of atonement and fellowship. In English the SVO order restructures the Hebrew VSO to preserve clarity and maintain parallelism.
