1 SAMUEL 20:19 — KING JAMES VERSION 0 0
“And when thou hast stayed three days, then thou shalt go down quickly, and come to the place where thou didst hide thyself when the business was in hand, and shalt remain by the stone Ezel.”
And on the third day, you shall come down quickly to the place where you hid yourself on the day that the deed was done, and remain beside the stone Ezel — David's *malcha el ha'avanim* (come down beside the stones) anticipates the signal location; the stone Ezel (*aven ezel*) becomes the rendezvous point. The *ba'yom* (*ba'yom asher naastu ha'melacha*, on the day the deed was done) is cryptic, possibly referring to the incident of Saul's spear-throwing or some other significant event.
