Exegesis
The verb form yoshevet {יוֹשֶׁבֶת | yōšeḇet} conveys continuous action, and the existential ’en {אֵ֥ן | ʾên} with ’immāh {עִמָּֽהּ | ʿimmāh} ‘was not with her’ underscores Manoach’s absence, heightening narrative tension.
In context — Judges 13:9
And God listened to the voice of Manoach, and the angel of God came again to the woman while she was sitting in the field; yet Manoach, her husband, was not with her.
