Exegesis
The interrogative prepositional phrase hattāḥat zōṯ lō’ yūmatt {הֲתַחַת זֹאת לֹא יוּמַת | hattāḥat zōṯ lō’ yūmatt} forms a rhetorical question anticipating judicial action. The Hofal imperfect yūmatt ‘be put to death’ conveys potential legal outcome.
In context — 2 Samuel 19:21
And Abishai, son of Zeruiah, answered and said, “Should not Shimei be put to death for this, for he cursed the LORD ’s anointed?”
