Exegesis

The additive particle ve-af {וְאַף | wə-ʼap} ‘and also’ introduces a further offense in the clause asher halkhu immi {אֲשֶׁר־הֽ͏ָלְכ֥וּ עִמִּי | ʾă-šer hā-lak-û ʿim-mî} ‘which they walked with me’, culminating in the locative expression bekeri {בְּקֶֽרִי | bə-qêrî} ‘in hostility’. The translation maintains these parallel structures and covenantal summons through coordinated clauses and relative pronouns.

In contextLeviticus 26:40

And they will confess their iniquity and the iniquity of their fathers in their treachery that they committed against Me—and also that they walked with Me in hostility.
