Exegesis
The coordinated nouns wəḥămōr {וְהַחֲמוֹר֙ | wə-ḥă-mōr} ‘the donkey’ and wəhārḗh {וְהָ֣אַרְיֵ֔ה | wə-hā-’ǎ-rēh} ‘the lion’ each pair with the participle ’ōmēḏ {עֹמֵ֖ד | ’ō-mēḏ} ‘standing’ and the preposition ’ēṣel/’eṣlâh {אֵ֥צֶל | ’ē-ṣel; אֶצְלָ֔הּ | ’eṣ-lāh} ‘beside,’ framing a striking tableau of stillness that accentuates the abrupt violence and aftermath.
In context — 1 Kings 13:24
And he went on his way, and a lion met him on the road and killed him, and his corpse was cast on the road; the donkey stood beside it, and the lion stood beside the corpse.
