Exegesis
Two parallel relative clauses, asher chata {אֲשֶׁר חָטָא | ʾa-šer ḥā-ṭāʼ} ‘which he sinned’ and ve-asher hecheti et Yisra’el {וַאֲשֶׁר הֶחֱטִ֖יא אֶת־יִשְׂרָאֵֽל | wa-ʾa-šer he-che-tīʼ ʼet-yi-srā-ʼēl} ‘and which he caused Israel to sin’, reinforce Jeroboam’s direct and vicarious guilt. The hiphil verb hecheti intensifies causation, and the Hebrew structure preserves parallelism and theological emphasis on individual and communal sin.
