Exegesis
The conjunction vav links vesamkhu {וְסָמְכוּ | wə-sāmkhû} ‘and they will lay’ and veragmu {וְרָגְמוּ | wə-rāgmû} ‘and they will stone’ as sequential community actions: first the hearers, hashōmə·ʿīm {הַשֹּׁמְעִים | hashōmə·ʿīm} ‘those who hear’, place yə·dē-hēm {יְדֵיהֶם | yə·dē-hēm} ‘their hands’ on rōšo {רֹאשׁוֹ | rōšo} ‘his head’, signifying transfer of guilt.
In context — Leviticus 24:14
Bring the blasphemer outside the camp, and let all the hearers lay their hands on his head, and let all the assembly stone him.
