Exegesis
The participle balul {בָּלוּל | bā-lûl} ‘mixed’ introduces the preparation clause, linked by bashemen {בַּשֶּׁמֶן | ba-še-men} ‘with oil’ and completed by chatzi ha-hin {חֲצִי הַהִֽין | ḥa-ṣî ha-hîn} ‘half a hin’. Hebrew’s tight word order and construct phrases yield exact liturgical instruction, which the English reflects with parallel noun phrases and modifiers.
Root and etymology
“liquid measure”
In context — Numbers 15:9
And he shall bring with the bull a grain offering of fine flour—three tenths of an ephah—mixed with oil, half a hin.
