Exegesis
The phrase ū-min YHWH Eloheinu {וּמִן־יְהוָ֣ה אֱלֹהֵ֗ינוּ | ū-min Yə-hō-wāh ʾĕ-lō-hē-nū} supplies divine initiative, implicitly echoed by the Niphal perfect niprəṣāh {נִפְרְצָה֙ | niprəṣāh} ‘it springs forth’.
In context — 1 Chronicles 13:2
David said to the whole assembly of Israel, “If it seems good to you, and if it is from the LORD our God , let us send out word to our brothers who remain throughout all the lands of Israel and to the priests and Levites in their pastureland cities , that they may gather to us.”
