Exegesis
The direct object marker et {אֶת | ʾet} precedes each component, enforcing exhaustive listing.
Coordination wə-ʾet {וְאֶת | wə-ʾet} linking orah {עֹרָהּ | ʿôrāh} ‘skin’, bə-śārāh {בְּשָׂרָהּ | bə-śārāh} ‘flesh’, and dāmāh {דָּמָהּ | dāmāh} ‘blood’ uses repetition for emphasis on completeness.
In context — Numbers 19:5
And he shall burn the cow before his eyes; its skin, its flesh, and its blood he shall burn upon its dung .
