Exegesis
The preposition kî {כִּ | kî} plus construct t’ĕ·bû·’āṯ {תְּבוּאַ֥ת | t’ĕ·bû·’āṯ} introduces the comparative clause, equating the sacred gift with ordinary agricultural yield: gō·ren {גֹּרֶן | gō·ren} ‘threshing floor’ and yā·qeb {יָֽקֶב | yā·qeb} ‘winepress.’ This structure creates a typological parallel, emphasizing the Levites’ share as equivalent to primary produce.
