Exegesis
Two parallel clauses joined by vegam {וְגַם־ | wə-gam} “and also” express “you did not tell me” and “I did not hear,” with the emphatic anokhi {אָנֹכִ֛י | ʾā-nō-khî} enhancing the speaker’s assertion.
In context — Genesis 21:26
And Abimelech said, “I did not know who did this matter ; you did not tell me, and I did not hear of it until today .”
