Exegesis
The verse opens with the conditional clause introduced by ve-’ish {וְאִישׁ | wə-’îš} ‘and a man’ followed by ki {כִּי | kî} marking a hypothetical.
The verb yimkor {יִמְכֹּר | yim-kôr} ‘he sells’ is in the Qal imperfect, indicating ongoing potential action.
In context — Leviticus 25:29
And if a man sells a dwelling house in a walled city, then its right of redemption shall remain until the completion of a full year from its sale. For the days that make up that year, his redemption right shall stand.
