1 SAMUEL 19:11 — KING JAMES VERSION 0 0
“Saul also sent messengers unto David’s house, to watch him, and to slay him in the morning: and Michal David’s wife told him, saying, If thou save not thy life to night, to morrow thou shalt be slain.”
And Saul sent messengers to David's house to watch him, and to kill him in the morning — Saul's *va'yishlach Shaul tziriyim el bet David*, sent messengers to David's house, represents a new escalation: Saul moves from direct assassination attempts to systematic elimination, surrounding David's dwelling to trap him. The *lazmirah boqer*, in the morning, suggests a deliberate plan, a coordinated assassination when David emerges from his home.
