And in the morning Jonathan went out into the field at the time appointed with David — Jonathan's *va'yetzet Yehonatan ha'sadeh b'mo'ed asher dibber Dovid* proceeds with the signal plan; despite his father's rage, he fulfills his covenant obligation to David. The *b'mo'ed* (at the appointed time) shows both punctuality and fidelity; Jonathan keeps the appointment despite the emotional turmoil.
