DEUTERONOMY 22:27 — KING JAMES VERSION 0 0
“For he found her in the field, and the betrothed damsel cried, and there was none to save her.”
It was in the open country that he met her, the engaged woman cried out, but there was no one to rescue her — the reiteration acknowledges the structural impossibility of rescue in the countryside; the girl's cry (even if unheard) demonstrates her resistance and establishes her innocence.
