Exegesis
The infinitive construct be-asp’khem {בְּאָסְפְּכֶם | bəʾaspəḵem} functions as a temporal clause “when you gather,” leading into the noun phrase tevu’at ha-arets {תְּבוּאַת הָאָרֶץ | təvūʾāṯ hāʾāreṣ} ‘the produce of the land,’ marked by et {אֶת־ | ʾet}.
In context — Leviticus 23:39
But on the fifteenth day of the seventh month, when you have gathered in the produce of the land, you shall celebrate the festival of the LORD for seven days; on the first day shall be a complete rest, and on the eighth day shall be a complete rest.
