and unleavened bread
Unleavened bread — bread or cakes made without the addition of yeast or other leavening agents; prepared from meal (flour) and water, and baked quickly before fermentation. Used in ritual, cultic, and everyday settings, particularly significant during the festival of unleavened bread (חַג הַמַּצּוֹת) coinciding with Passover as prescribed in Israelite law. Extended use can denote the festival itself or, by metonymy, a period when only such bread is consumed.

and unleavened loaves
| Morphological Notes | Conjunction וּ + noun, feminine plural absolute (מַצּוֹת). |
| Rendering Rationale | The noun מַצּוֹת is feminine plural absolute, here with prefixed conjunction וּ (“and”), so the rendering preserves both plurality and coordination. “Unleavened loaves” reflects the root sense of bread made without leaven, aligning with the core idea of something drained or lacking fermentation. |
