1 SAMUEL 19:18 — KING JAMES VERSION 0 0
“So David fled, and escaped, and came to Samuel to Ramah, and told him all that Saul had done to him. And he and Samuel went and dwelt in Naioth.”
And Saul said to Michal, Why have you deceived me thus and sent my enemy away, that he has escaped? — Saul's *va'yomer Shaul el Michal*, said to Michal, confronts the deception, yet his focus on the *teraphim* and Michal's role suggests he does not immediately recognize that David has fled far and is beyond easy capture. His designation of David as *tzrari* (my enemy) marks the complete rupture: David is no longer servant or son-in-law but enemy, one who must be destroyed.
