Definition (Hebrew)

לְאָן אוּכַל לִבְרֹחַ מִמְּךָ?! בִּטּוּי הַנֶּאֱמָר כִּשְׁאֵלָה רֵטוֹרִית וּבָא לְהַבִּיעַ הַשְׁלָמָה עִם הָעֻבְדָּה שֶׁאֵין לְאָן לִבְרֹחַ.

("אָנָה אֵלֵךְ מֵרוּחֶךָ וְאָנָה מִפָּנֶיךָ אֶבְרָח"- תְּהִלִּים קָלַט ז, וְכֵן: "הוֹי, אָנָה מֵחֲמָתוֹ אֶבְרָחָהּ, אֲנוּסָה?/ גַּם חַיָּה לֹא אָחִיהָ, גַּם מָוֶת לֹא אָמוּתָה"- ח.נ. בְּיָאלִיק/ הִרְהוּרֵי לַיְלָה)
