Exegesis
The imperfect verb yechesar {יֶחְסַר | yekhe-sar} conveys potential absence and is followed by the source construction avi mimeni {אָבִי מִמֶּנִּי | ’a-vî mim-men-nî} and the temporal phrase kol-hayom {כָּל־הַיּוֹם | kol-ha-yôm} indicating duration.
In context — 1 Samuel 20:6
If your father misses me at all, then say, “David earnestly asked leave from me to run to Bethlehem, his city, for there is a yearly sacrifice there for the whole clan.”
