1 Kings 21:7

Dost thou now govern the kingdom of Israel? There is not expressed here any sign of a question in the original, but there can be no doubt that this is the force of the words. The Hebrew order is -Thou now governest, &c." the pronoun being emphatically expressed. So that the sense is - Thouart king, art thou not? why then let such a matter trouble thee or stand in the way of thy will." The proposal of some to take the words as imperative, -Thou, do thou use thy sovereignty, &c." is opposed to what follows. For Jezebel does not urge Ahab to act the despot's part, but plays it for him.

I will give thee, &c. The -I" in this clause is emphatically expressed, just as -thou" in the preceding one.
