The coordinated nouns u-Michal {וּמִיכַ֥ל | wǝ-Mîkhāl} “and Michal” with bat-Sha'ul {בַּת־שָׁא֖וּל | bat-Šāʼûl} “daughter of Saul” frame her identity, and the perfect verb ahevathu {אַהֵבַֽתְהוּ | ʾăhēḇaṯ-hû} “she loved him” communicates completed affection. This compact structure links divine presence and personal devotion in a single narrative moment.
