Exegesis

The relative pronoun asher {אֲשֶׁ֨ר | ’ă-šer} ‘which’ introduces the clause describing Jonathan’s intent, where the verb bikesh {בִּקֵּ֤שׁ | bik-keš} ‘sought’ with the infinitive construct la‘avor {לַֽעֲבֹר֙ | la-‘ā-vōr} ‘to cross’ and the preposition al-matsev {עַל־מַצַּ֣ב | ʿal-maṭ-ṣēb} ‘over the outpost’ governs the proper noun Pelishtim {פְּלִשְׁתִּ֔ים | Pe-lish-tīm} ‘Philistines’ as its object.
