Exegesis
The construct divrei Rechav'am {דִּבְרֵי רְחַבְעָם | dǝ-vrê rə-ḥa-v̱a-ʿǎm} ‘acts of Rehoboam’ is qualified by the relative vechol asher asah {וְכָל־אֲשֶׁר עָשָׂה | wə-kâl ʾǎ-šer ʿā-śǎh} specifying all that he did.
The passive participle ketuvim {כְתוּבִים | kᵉ-tû-wîm} ‘written’ with the preposition al {עַל־ | ʿal} forms a passive result clause, leading into the construct sefer divrei hayamim {סֵפֶר דִּבְרֵי הַיָּמִים | sê-fer dǝ-vrê ha-yyā-mîm} ‘book of the words of days’ denoting the royal annals.

In context — 1 Kings 14:29
Now the remainder of the acts of Rehoboam, and all that he did, are they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Judah?
