1 SAMUEL 20:22 — KING JAMES VERSION 0 0
“But if I say thus unto the young man, Behold, the arrows are beyond thee; go thy way: for the Lord hath sent thee away.”
If I say to the lad, Behold, the arrows are on this side of you, take them — Jonathan's *im amar la'na'ar hineh ha'chitzim mimcha va'halanah*, if I say to the lad, behold, the arrows are on this side, the meaning is that David is safe; Saul's anger has not escalated. The location of the arrows—*mimcha*, on this side—indicates safety, the signal that David can emerge from hiding.
