Exegesis
The temporal clause uses ’ad {עַד | ʿad} ‘until’ with the infinitive construct bo davar {בּוֹא דָבָר | bô dāḇār} ‘the coming of a word’, creating a conditional waiting frame.
In context — 2 Samuel 15:28
See, I am lingering at the fords in the plains of the wilderness until a word comes from you to tell me.
