Exegesis

The hypothetical clause im-ya’amod {אִם־יַעֲמֹד | ʾim-ya-ʿă-mō-ḏ} ‘if he should stand’ frames an extreme scenario by naming Moses {מֹשֶׁה | mō-šeh} and Samuel {וּשְׁמוּאֵל | ū-šə-mū-ʾēl} as prototypical intercessors.

In context — Jeremiah 15:1

And the LORD said to me, “Even if Moses and Samuel should stand before Me, My soul is not toward this people; send them away from My face, and let them go out.”
