Exegesis

The interrogative halo {הֲלוֹא֩ | hă·lōʾ} ‘is it not’ forms a rhetorical question, foregrounded by anokhi {אָנֹכִ֨י | ʾā·nō·ḵî} ‘I’ and atonkha {אֲתֹֽנְךָ֜ | ʾă·ṯōn·ḵā} ‘your donkey’.

In contextNumbers 22:30

And the donkey said to Balaam, “Am I not your donkey , which you have ridden upon me from your beginnings until this day? Have I ever been accustomed to do thus for you?” And he said, “No.”
