Exegesis

The interjection hinneh {הִנֵּה | hin-nēh} appears twice to spotlight both the gift (natatti {נָתַתִּי | nā-tat-tî} ‘I have given’) and its intended result (hu-lakh {הוּא־לָךְ | hûʾ-lāḵ} ‘it is to you’).

In contextGenesis 20:16

And to Sarah he said, “See, I have given a thousand pieces of silver to your brother. See, it will be for you a covering of the eyes before all who are with you; and before everyone you are vindicated .”
