Exegesis
The verb yitma {יִטְמָא | yiṭmāʾ} ‘becomes unclean’ in the imperfect conveys the legal verdict, followed by the temporal expression šibʿaṯ yāmîm {שִׁבְעַת יָמִים | šibʿaṯ yāmîm} ‘seven days’ in construct relationship. English translation breaks the parallelism into sequential conditions for readability, preserving the universal scope and temporal duration.
In context — Numbers 19:14
This is the law when a person dies in a tent: Everyone who enters the tent, and everyone already in the tent, will be unclean for seven days.
