The Hebrew word signifieth to find, ¹by going out to meet a man, or (as we say) to light upon him. As Ahab said to Elijah (1 King. 21.20.) Hast thou found (or met) me O mine enemy? and he answered, I have found (or met) thee. So the word is used (2 King. 10.13.) Jehu met with the Brethren of Ahaziah King of Judah; In the Margin we say, Jehu found the Brethren of Ahaziah, that is, he met them upon the way, for he went out to meet them. Read also (1 Sam. 10.3.) As if the sense were thus given; O that I knew where I might find him! that is, whither I might go to meet him, though I should not find him by accident, or (as we say) stumble upon him; I would go out, I would travel, and take pains upon hopes to meet him.
