Exegesis
The temporal phrase ba-yamim ha-hem {בַּיָּמִים הָהֵם | ba-yyā-mîm hā-hēm} ‘in those days’ sets narrative context.
In context — Judges 20:28
And Phinehas, the son of Eleazar, the son of Aharon, stood before the LORD in those days, saying, “Shall I go out again to battle the sons of Benjamin, my brother , or shall I cease?” And the LORD said, “Go up, for tomorrow I will give them into your hand.”
