Exegesis

Temporal details are given by a composite circumstantial phrase ba-chamishah {בַּחֲמִשָּׁה | baḥammaššāh} ‘in the fifth’ + asar {עָשָׂר | ʿāsar} ‘ten’ + yom {יוֹם | yôm} ‘day’, followed by the genitival sequence lachodesh hashvi‘i hazzeh {לַחֹדֶשׁ הַשְּׁבִיעִי הַזֶּה | laḥōḏēš haššəḇîʿî haz-zeh} ‘of this seventh month’, which fixes the date.
