Exegesis

The negative interrogative halo {הֲל֖וֹא | ha-lōʾ} ‘is it not’ anticipates affirmation and introduces the beneficiary lifnei bə-nôʾ {לִפְנֵ֣י בְנ֑וֹ | li-p̄nê bə-nôʾ} ‘before his son.’

In context2 Samuel 16:19

And secondly, whom should I serve? Should it not be his son ? Just as I served before your father, so I will be before you.
