Exegesis
The Vav-consecutive unetatem {וּנְתַתֶּם | unetatem} ‘and you shall give’ signals the next act, followed by et-terumat YHWH {אֶת־תְּרוּמַת יְהוָה | et-terumat YHWH} ‘offering of LORD’ as object and leaharon hakohen {לְאַהֲרֹן הַכֹּהֵן | leaharon hakohen} ‘to Aaron the priest’ indicating the recipient. This structure preserves Hebrew word order and logical progression.
