Exegesis
The verse opens with a sequence of vav-consecutive commands where va’asitem {וַעֲשִׂיתֶם | wa-ʿă-sî-tem} ‘and you shall do’ and tishmeru {תִּשְׁמְרוּ | ṯišmərû} ‘you shall keep’ establish a chain of legal obligations.
In context — Leviticus 25:18
And you shall carry out my statutes and keep my judgments, and you shall do them, and you will dwell on the land securely.
