I kind of like that.
So the whole point is it's a fixed little phrase.
And to respond with the bait preposition is used to refer specifically to like legally or publicly making a declaration.
Let's just look at some examples and it'll become clear.
So in the book of Samuel, there's a story about how Samuel, he's a prophet, great prophet and priest figure.
He's been leading the people, but the people of Israel want a king.
They want somebody who will go fight battles for them and be like a king like the other nations.
And so Samuel's, what do you say, he's miffed?
He's a little insulted.
When he hands over leadership to this king, Saul, he gives this long speech.
And he says, okay, I'm signing off leadership here.
Anybody around, bear witness about me.
Whose ox have I taken?
Whose donkey have I taken?
Did I defraud anybody?
Who have I oppressed?
Whose hand have I taken a bribe from to blind my eyes?
